How to make a robot to be controlled via web?

Hi i want to make a robot controlled by web i have 4! of the old frc controllers. And an assload of vex so i was wondering if anyone could hook me up with how to do this. Basically we can make a field, put a camera on the robot and then you login on the web from another computer and you control the robot that way, i was just wondering if that was even possible. I saw the things in magazines where you put a laptop and a webcam to detect burglars while your away with the wifi in your hotel room. i just want to do this so we can sell tickets in school and then people can queue to play online at home without even having to be in our robotics room.

Sounds like alot of work. You will have to set up a webserver and have it send signals to the robot. The robotics club I’m in uses a zigbee to get wireless signals from the computer.
