Modern Robotics for Beginners - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Robotics can seem overwhelming when mechanics, electronics, programming, control systems, and artificial intelligence are presented as separate subjects.

Modern Robotics for Beginners connects them, giving you a clear foundation for understanding how real robots sense, decide, and act.

Whether you are a student, aspiring engineer, technician, hobbyist, educator, or career changer, this approachable guide helps you understand the systems behind everything from industrial robot arms and autonomous vehicles to drones, medical robots, and planetary rovers.

Inside, you will learn how to:

• Understand the sense-think-act cycle at the heart of robotic systems
• Recognize major robot types and their real-world applications
• Explore frames, joints, gears, bearings, grippers, and mechanical design
• Compare DC, servo, stepper, hydraulic, pneumatic, and linear actuators
• Understand circuits, batteries, microcontrollers, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi
• Work with cameras, LIDAR, proximity sensors, IMUs, and sensor fusion
• Grasp feedback control, PID concepts, kinematics, and motion planning
• Discover how Python, C++, ROS, and simulation support robot programming
• Explore machine learning, computer vision, reinforcement learning, and autonomous navigation
• Evaluate robotics safety, ethics, careers, and emerging technologies

Organized into 12 structured chapters, the book combines accessible explanations, chapter summaries, a detailed glossary, further-reading resources, and black-and-white conceptual illustrations. No advanced engineering or programming background is required.

Stop treating robotics as a collection of disconnected technologies.
