Commercial mobile robots provide good platform for the  study and development of algorithms for wireless mobile communication of devices. E-Puck is a good example, with wireless communication utilising Bluetooth among others. However, the limitations of Bluetooth communications lead to the investigation of using X-Bee module as an alternative. This is to allow the E-Puck to communicate with a computer and other mobile robots using specified Zigbee protocol. This paper presents X-Bee module as wireless communication method between computer and E-Pucks and the way they exchange data.
