Beginning Robotics with Raspberry Pi and Arduino : Using Python and Opencv, Paperback by Cicolani, Jeff, ISBN 1484268903, ISBN-13 9781484268902, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US
<p>Learn how to use a Raspberry Pi in conjunction with an Arduino to build a basic robot with advanced capabilities. Getting started in robotics does not have to be difficult. This book is an insightful and rewarding introduction to robotics and a catalyst for further directed study. </p><p>Fully updated to cover the Raspberry Pi 4 with its better processor and memory, discover new ways to work with Computer Vision. You'll be led step by step through the process of building a robot that uses the power of a Linux based computer paired with the simplicity of Arduino. You’ll learn why the Raspberry Pi is a great choice for a robotics platform; its strengths as well as its shortcomings; how to overcome these limitations by implementing an Arduino; and the basics of the Python programming language as well as some of the more powerful features.</p><p>With the Raspberry Pi you can give your project the power of a Linux computer, while Arduino makes interacting with sensors and motors very easy. These two boards are complimentary in their functions; where one falters the other performs admirably.<br></p><p>Th also includes references to other great works to help further your growth in the exciting, and now accessible, field of smart robotics. As a bonus, the final chapter of th demonstrates the real power of the Raspberry Pi by implementing a basic vision system. Using OpenCV and a standard USB web cam, you will build a robot that can chase a ball.</p><p><b>What You'll Learn</b></p><ul><li>Install Raspbian, the operating system that drives the Raspberry Pi<br></li><li>Drive motors through an I2C motor controller<br></li><li>Read data through sensors attached to an Arduino<br></li></ul><div><b>Who This Book Is For</b></div><div> <p>Hobbyists and students looking for a rapid start in robotics. It assumes no technical background. Readers are guided to pursue the areas that interest them in more detail as they learn.</p></div><p></p>
