Industrial robots are usually designed for specific applications. Most of the tasks in these applications are repetitive and dull for manufacturing processes. For this purpose predefined sequences and positions usually have to be stored in the robot's built-in controller memory. Robots are often employed to do tasks such as welding, assembly, and packaging. These tasks are dull and boring, but robots nowadays are very autonomous and can perform tasks other than the typical industrial jobs. Most of these robots are equipped with a serial port to control the robot dynamically and remotely if needed. In this case the built-in controller will act as a slave and the remote computer will be the master. The movement of the robot will be based on the command string sent by the remote controller using the robot's built-in controller's language... We present a dynamically controlled robot platform (Table-Top robot) to draw a portrait picture captured by a camera. This is done in three modules:..
