Nowadays the remote area is experiencing a great demand for varies field of engineering. Stepper motor, one of the most common motor widely used in controlling especially to achieve a precise measuring of a motor‟s rotor operation. Stepper motor is the best choice to be chosen for certain applications which requires high specification. Hence the aim for this project is to construct a stepper motor controller while enhancing its performance in terms of controlling. The purpose of this project is to control the speed and direction of a stepper motor using Xbee module using wireless controlling method. The aim is to able to control the turn of stepper motor rotor direction clockwise or anti-clockwise and decrease or increase the speed. Instead of using in industrial application such as remote control device, valve operation or any other electrical device operation; the device also can be apply for home application such as camera monitoring.
