Robot Programmer's Bonanza
by John Blankenship and Samuel Mishal
Just arrived this excellent new book on Robot Programming. Based on the easy-to-use RobotBASIC programming software, this book first
introduces the software and then explains how to develop algorithms and debugging techniques for the software. The book then moves on to
cover extensively controlling robot movements, including following a straight line, locating a goal, navigating in a maze and
also how to move in the home or office. Developing robotic intelligence is also covered together with a real-world simulation.
The book is easy to understand and is an ideal starting point to move from remote controlled robots to fully autonomous
robots, able to navigate and make decisions independently.
Features
- Based On Easy-to-Use RobotBASIC Programming Software
- In-Depth Coverage of Controlling Robot Movements
- Plenty of Code Examples for each Chapter
- Developing Intelligent Robots
- Appendix with detailed information on each RobotBASIC Command
