Robots in general are used to aid people in different tasks from simple activities that prevent also people from harm. The numbers of activities of these robots increase as how technology advances throughout the years. In fields of Robotics it is important that these robots are not complete replacements of humanity but mere tools that will improve human lives and more so save lives if possible. In this paper, the group presents a remote-controlled mobot that will be having amphibious capabilities that is developed by the group. The system is accessible through a radio frequency transmitter and receiver which there is an executable file that allows the mobot to be controlled. The characterization of the system and its performance are presented here as well.
