A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

EV3 without limits!

 

Build 5 amazing robotics projects that take DIY to a whole new level!

 

You can do way more with your LEGO Mindstorms EV3 kit than anyone ever told you! In this full-color, step-by-step tutorial, top-maker and best-selling author John Baichtal shows you how to transcend Mindstorms’ limits as you build five cutting-edge robotics projects.

 

You’ll discover just how much you can do with only the parts that came with your kit–and how much farther you can go with extremely low-cost add-ons like Arduino and Raspberry Pi. You’ll learn how to reprogram your Mindstorms Intelligent Brick to add additional hardware options and create more complex programs.

 

Hundreds of full-color, step-by-step photos teach you every step, every skill. Whenever you’re ready for advanced techniques, Baichtal explains them in plain English.

Here’s just some of what you’ll learn how to do:

 

• Build a drawing Plotter Bot that gyrates to draw new patterns
• Hack Mindstorms’ wires–and control robots without wires
• Create a remote-controlled crane, and operate it from your smartphone
• Use the EV3 brick to control third-party electronic modules of all kinds
• Replace the EV3 brick with smarter, more flexible Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or BeagleBone Black hardware
• Build a robotic flower whose petals open and close based on time of day
• Use third-party sensors to build robots that can sense practically anything
• Load an alternate operating system onto your EV3 brick
• 3D print, laser, and mill your own perfect LEGO parts
• Create ball contraptions, and extend them with your own custom parts
• Make a pole-climbing robot–and hook up an altimeter to track its height

Présentation de l'éditeur :

LEGO Mindstorms EV3 has taken the world by storm… but you can do way more with LEGO's kit than anyone ever told you! In this full-color, step-by-step tutorial, top maker and best-selling author John Baichtal shows how to transcend Mindstorms' limits as you build five cutting-edge robotics projects. Every project in this guide can be built with only the parts that come with the kit. Once you've done that, Baichtal shows how to inexpensively supplement LEGO's kit to accomplish even more. Here's just some of what Hacking Your LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Kit will show you how to do:

• Build a drawing machine that gyrates to draw new patterns
• Create a remote-controlled crane, and control it with your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone
• Replace the Mindstorms EV3 brick with the powerful and flexible Arduino, Beaglebone, or Raspberry Pi microcontrollers
• Build a robot flower whose petals open and close based on the time of day
• Create ball contraptions, and extending them by designing your own custom parts
• Use the EV3 brick to control third-party sensors, lights, and other electronic modules
• Load an alternate operating system onto your EV3 brick
• Construct a robot that can roll up and down a flagpole – and even knows how high it is
