DESCRIPTION:
This book is meant to be interesting, helpful, and educational to hobbyists,
students, educators, and midlevel engineers studying or
designing mobile robots that do real work. It is primarily focused on
mechanisms and devices that relate to vehicles that move around by
themselves and actually do things autonomously, i.e. a robot. Making a
vehicle that can autonomously drive around, both indoors and out,
seems, at first, like a simple thing. Build a chassis, add drive wheels,
steering wheels, a power source (usually batteries), some control code
that includes some navigation and obstacle avoidance routines or some
other way to control it, throw some bump sensors on it, and presto! a

robot.
