either develop your own board, or buy some kits.

can anyone help

There is 2 way to send the data to the PC, through wire or wireless. If u wish to configure the robot then wire type will be suitable for you, but if u plan to do the real time monitor then wireless will be more useful. For wireless u can consider bluetooth or RF. I believe there is a lot of the tutorial or guide on how to transfer data from outside to pc.
 

Re: can anyone help

Bluetooth and Wifi are so hot these days. They get rid of wires on everything.

MATLAB it self can open and control serial port.
Also it support C programming for your own hardware.

MATLAB is a good bet. But too expensive.
