Paperback. Learn How Connected Systems Sense, Decide, Act, and Verify Their ResultsSmart-home devices and autonomous drones may appear to belong to different worlds, but they share the same engineering problem: turning imperfect measurements into safe, limited, and verifiable actions.A room-monitoring system must decide whether a reading is current, whether a threshold has genuinely been crossed, and whether an action succeeded. A drone application must confirm vehicle readiness, monitor changing conditions, manage mission states, and respond correctly when communication or positioning fails.Autonomous Systems Starter Guide provides a practical, beginner-friendly introduction to the principles and tools behind both environments.Rather than treating automation as a collection of disconnected settings, this book teaches one dependable working model: Sense Communicate Decide Act VerifyYou will begin by understanding sensors, control loops, system states, communication links, feedback, safe states, and failure handling. You will then build smart-home projects with ESP32, ESPHome, MQTT, and Home Assistant before progressing to Python supervision, simulated PX4 missions, QGroundControl, and MAVSDK-Python.Inside this hands-on guide, you will learn how to: Understand the difference between remote control, automation, and autonomyApply the sense-decide-act cycle to real systemsSeparate physical devices, sensing, communication, decision-making, interfaces, and logsDistinguish states, events, commands, acknowledgements, and completed actionsUnderstand open-loop and closed-loop behaviourUse feedback without creating unstable or rapidly switching systemsDesign safe states, timeouts, limited retries, and human-intervention pointsChoose between local, cloud-dependent, and hybrid architecturesBuild a safe low-voltage project laboratorySelect and connect an ESP32 development board and BME280 environmental moduleUnderstand temperature, humidity, pressure, motion, presence, proximity, and electrical measurementsCompare accuracy, precision, resolution, drift, sampling rates, and update intervalsWork with I2C, SPI, UART, and GPIO connectionsReduce unreliable behaviour caused by noise, bouncing, poor calibration, and incorrect thresholdsUnderstand Wi-Fi, Ethernet, serial links, JSON payloads, and network addressingInstall and test an Eclipse Mosquitto MQTT brokerThe practical projects include an ESP32 environmental monitor, a Home Assistant room dashboard, a humidity-warning workflow, an MQTT telemetry logger, a Python environment supervisor, a simulated PX4 inspection route, a MAVSDK mission program, and a unified monitoring and control console.The drone exercises remain simulation-based so that mission logic, connection handling, state transitions, timeouts, and emergency responses can be tested without risking an aircraft.

Smart-home devices and autonomous drones may appear to belong to different worlds, but they share the same engineering problem: turning imperfect measurements into safe, limited, and verifiable actions.
A room-monitoring system must decide whether a reading is current, whether a threshold has genuinely been crossed, and whether an action succeeded. A drone application must confirm vehicle readiness, monitor changing conditions, manage mission states, and respond correctly when communication or positioning fails.
Autonomous Systems Starter Guide provides a practical, beginner-friendly introduction to the principles and tools behind both environments.
Rather than treating automation as a collection of disconnected settings, this book teaches one dependable working model:
Sense → Communicate → Decide → Act → Verify
You will begin by understanding sensors, control loops, system states, communication links, feedback, safe states, and failure handling. You will then build smart-home projects with ESP32, ESPHome, MQTT, and Home Assistant before progressing to Python supervision, simulated PX4 missions, QGroundControl, and MAVSDK-Python.
Inside this hands-on guide, you will learn how to:
- Understand the difference between remote control, automation, and autonomy
- Apply the sense–decide–act cycle to real systems
- Separate physical devices, sensing, communication, decision-making, interfaces, and logs
- Distinguish states, events, commands, acknowledgements, and completed actions
- Understand open-loop and closed-loop behaviour
- Use feedback without creating unstable or rapidly switching systems
- Design safe states, timeouts, limited retries, and human-intervention points
- Choose between local, cloud-dependent, and hybrid architectures
- Build a safe low-voltage project laboratory
- Select and connect an ESP32 development board and BME280 environmental module
- Understand temperature, humidity, pressure, motion, presence, proximity, and electrical measurements
- Compare accuracy, precision, resolution, drift, sampling rates, and update intervals
- Work with I²C, SPI, UART, and GPIO connections
- Reduce unreliable behaviour caused by noise, bouncing, poor calibration, and incorrect thresholds
- Understand Wi-Fi, Ethernet, serial links, JSON payloads, and network addressing
- Install and test an Eclipse Mosquitto MQTT broker
The practical projects include an ESP32 environmental monitor, a Home Assistant room dashboard, a humidity-warning workflow, an MQTT telemetry logger, a Python environment supervisor, a simulated PX4 inspection route, a MAVSDK mission program, and a unified monitoring and control console.
The drone exercises remain simulation-based so that mission logic, connection handling, state transitions, timeouts, and emergency responses can be tested without risking an aircraft. The book also maintains clear boundaries around electrical work, network exposure, physical testing, and human supervision.
Whether you are a smart-home enthusiast, electronics beginner, Python learner, robotics student, maker, drone developer, or technician, this guide will help you understand how dependable autonomous workflows are designed from the ground up.

Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
