A propos de cet article

Paperback. Start your journey into the exciting world of robotics! This accessible guide teaches how to design, build, and control robotic arms. Using simple, affordable parts, readers will learn how to build a robotic arm, control it with an Arduino, and add servos to add degrees of motion for increasingly complex movements. Readers will also learn inverse kinematics, a mathematical process that enables robots to move, lift, and draw with more precision than humans. This is not a book for hardcore engineers, but a beginners guide for makers, teachers, and students with no previous experience required. Start your journey into the exciting world of robotics!

Synopsis

Your journey into the exciting world of robotics starts now!

Make: Robotic Arms is an incredibly accessible, hands-on guide to design, build, and control robotic arms, the cornerstone of modern robotics. This is not a book for hardcore engineers--it's written for students, teachers, and tinkerers with no previous experience required!

Using simple, affordable parts, this book will teach how to build a robotic arm, control it with an Arduino, and add servos to increase the degrees of motion for progressively complex movements. Readers will also learn inverse kinematics, a mathematical process that enables robots to move, lift, and draw with amazing precision. Make: Robotic Arms is a comprehensive course on how to:

• Build two-, three-, and four-link robotic arms
• Control the arms with simple Arduino programming
• Augment interfaces through potentiometers, joysticks, and rotary encoders
• Employ inverse kinematics for precision movements
• Innovate your own creation from inspirational variations

Robotics expert Matt Eaton presents 26 immersive projects to experience, starting with simple servo circuits and culminating in a robotic arm that operates in 3D space. With more than 200 color images and step-by-step instructions, Make: Robotic Arms is the ultimate introduction to robotics--even for makers with just a high-school level of math!
