Learn Arduino for Robots

Course details

This course will show you how to use yourArduino to control a robot, while providing step-by-step instructions on the entire robot building process. You'll learn Arduino basics as well as the characteristics of different types of motors used in robotics. You also discover controller methods and failsafe methods,and learnhowto apply them to your project. The book starts withbasic robots and moves into more complex projects, includinga GPS-enabled robot, a robotic lawn mower, a fighting bot, and even a DIY Segway-clone.
