Abstract

This paper provides an extended research work on an embedded system named as Hanoi+ which is implemented to operate via smart phone over Bluetooth communications. The functionalities of Hanoi+ are based on Natural Algorithm. In practical state this robot is capable to provide solution for multiple towers and multiple disks problem by using minimum number of operations and minimum cost path. In this paper, provided solution is for six towers and five disks have been shown and the make the hardware configuration flexible enough to get a better performance.
