Differences between serial and parallel interfaces?

The difference is that serial transmissions only use 2 wires for transmitting and receiving data, and only 1 for sending or receiving, and can only send one bit at a time. Parallel cables use several wires for data transmission and is much faster than serial thus 8 or more wires are carrying data *parallel* to each other to it's destination. serial data data (8 bits) transmit -----------010101010-----------------> single line to transmit on receive <--------------------------- single line to receive on Parallel data (80 bits) transmit multiple lines simultaneously ---- 010101001-----------> -----------010101010-----------> -----------010101010-----------> -----------010101001-----------> -----------010101010-----------> -----------010101010-----------> -----------010101001-----------> -----------010101010-----------> -----------010101010-----------> -----------010101001----------->

How do you control a robot with a computer using infrared?

The same way that a Remote Control device can control, for instance, a TV. There needs to be at least a transmitter at one end and an equivalent receiver at the other end, or a suitable combination of both, for effective control/communication to occur. you could get infra-red kits that interface to your computer through one of the available ports (Serial, parallel, USB, P/S2, etc.) and have a wireless component that could be embedded within your "robot"'s electronics, thus giving you a connectivity between the computer and robot.
