Squirt is an autonomous robot which can communicate with an Android phone. Optionally, the phone can be used as a controller to drive the robot. Squirt’s purpose is to water plants and chase away raccoons. It’s also a technology demonstration to prove the feasibility of using a smart phone to control small irrigation and well systems.

The Arduino Mega sends and receives data from the Android phone via bluetooth. The Arduino is constantly sending sensor and AI information to the phone. The robot receives driving, servo controlling and mode setting data from the phone. Personality functions are carried out both on the phone and the robot.

You can even get more information in this other post from David. Wow.
