Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Leverage the power of Python to build DIY robotic projectsKey Features:- Design, build, and stimulate collaborative robots- Build high-end robotics projects such as a customized personal Jarvis- Leverage the power of Python and ROS for DIY robotic projectsBook Description:Robotics is a fast-growing industry. Multiple surveys state that investment in the field has increased tenfold in the last 6 years, and is set to become a $100-billion sector by 2020. Robots are prevalent throughout all industries, and they are all set to be a part of our domestic lives. This book starts with the installation and basic steps in configuring a robotic controller. You'll then move on to setting up your environment to use Python with the robotic controller. You'll dive deep into building simple robotic projects, such as a pet-feeding robot, and more complicated projects, such as machine learning enabled home automation system (Jarvis), vision processing based robots and a self-driven robotic vehicle using Python.By the end of this book, you'll know how to build smart robots using Python.What You Will Learn:- Get to know the basics of robotics and its functions- Walk through interface components with microcontrollers- Integrate robotics with the IoT environment- Build projects using machine learning- Implement path planning and vision processing- Interface your robots with BluetoothWho this book is for:If building robots is your dream, then this book is made for you. Prior knowledge of Python would be an added advantage.Table of Contents- Robotics 101- Using GPIOs as Input- Making a Gardener Robot- Basics of Motors- Making a Pet Feeding Robot- Bluetooth-Controlled Robotic Car- Sensor Interface for Obstacle Avoidance- Making Your Own Area Scanner- Vision Processing- Making a Guard Robot- Basic Switching- Recognizing Humans with Jarvis- Making Jarvis IOT Enabled- Giving Voice to Jarvis- Gesture Recognition- Machine Learning- Gesture-Controlled Robotic Vehicle- Making a Robotic Arm
