I found this website about using a PS3 controller to control a robot. It looks like you use the PS3 controller in Bluetooth mode. Then connect a Bluetooth receiver to a gumsitx which has a Linux OS on it. You then connect the gumstix to your robot controller board. So when you press a button on the PS3 controller a signal is sent to the gumstix, then a program on the gumstix translates the signal into a number (bytes). Which is sent to the robot controller. That is what the Farrell’s are doing to control Oro and Zog.
