Description
Key Features
Book DescriptionThis book is for anyone who has been curious about using Arduino to create robotic projects that were previously the domain of research labs of major universities or defense departments. Some programming background is useful, but if you know how to use a PC, you can, with the aid of the step-by-step instructions in this book, construct complex robotic projects that can roll, walk, swim, or fly.What you will learn
Acquaint yourself with the many different kinds of Arduinos to choose the right Arduino for your application Start to use your Arduino by unboxing, powering-up, and configuring the device Tweak Arduino to make wheels, or legs, move so that your robot can be mobile Add GPS to your projects so your robots can know where they are Use RF signals to control your robot remotely Connect your robot to a display so you can see what it is thinking Build more complex robots that can move, swim, or fly

Person
Richard Grimmett has more fun that should be allowed working on robotics projects while teaching Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at Brigham Young University Idaho. He has a Bachelors and Masters degree in Electrical Engineering and a PhD in Leadership Studies. He also has 26 years of experience in the Radar and Telecommunications industries, and even has one of the original brick phones. He has written books on the basics of using the BeagleBone Black for robotics projects, and another for the Raspberry PI and yet another for the Arduino.
