Product Description
PThis book presents a unique combination of mobile robots and embedded systems, from introductory to intermediate level. It is structured in three parts, dealing with embedded systems (hardware and software design, actuators, sensors, PID control, multitasking), mobile robot design (driving, balancing, walking, and flying robots), and mobile robot applications (mapping, robot soccer, genetic algorithms, neural networks, behavior-based systems, and simulation). The book is written as a text for courses in computer science, computer engineering, IT, electronic engineering, and mechatronics, as well as a guide for robot hobbyists and researchers. /P

 A treasure chest of ideas August 27, 2006

This book is a real treasure chest of ideas for an amateur robot builder. It does not show solutions in enough detail to copy them, but it points you in the right direction. br / br /For me some of the most interesting topics covered were: br /- Motorola M68332 based general purpose robot controller board, br /- Introduction to different robot competitions, br /- Simplified image processing solutions, br /- Walking robots and evolutionary programs to control the gait, br /- Examples of real life robots.

Hi, so far the book is a little dissapointeing, because is to much centered to a commercial hardware (EyeCon) that is somewhat hard to adquiere to a group that has a very low budget for that kind of projects... but is important to have a reference. That is why it deserve a 3. But also supply a very important source of information for sensors and actuators design. That is why i gave an average of 4 stars. br / br /Best regards, and thanks for all the effort you made for me enjoying this book.
