Il marche sur six pattes, possède une intelligence artificielle, utilise des technologies de pointe et est incroyablement économique à construire!
This complete project book delivers all the step-by-step plans you need to construct your own six-legged insect-like robot that walks and actually responds to its environment. Using inexpensive off-the-shelf parts, hobbyists can "build a better bug" and at the same time have loads of fun honing their knowledge of mechanical construction, programmind, microcontroller use and artificial intelligence.
Written by an award-winning robotic expert, Insectronics:
- fully explains PIC programming, use of sensors, and robot intelligence
