A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Build your own Stiquito "walking–stick" robot insect with the included kit!

Stiquito Controlled! is a widely accessible, user–friendly book that provides step–by–step instructions for building Stiquito, a small, multi–legged robot that resembles a "walking–stick" insect. The book includes comprehensive instructions and all the parts needed to complete assembly. Most notably, the kit contains a microcontroller board that allows Stiquito to walk on its own. Key features of the book include:

• Complete kit to build Stiquito––no additional materials necessary (common tools and batteries required)
• Detailed, step–by–step instructions for assembly of the robot
• Comprehensive lessons on how to make Stiquito "walk" using the microcontroller

Engineering teachers and students, researchers, and science enthusiasts will find Stiquito Controlled! a fascinating and fun hands–on project.

Batteries not included.
