INTRODUCTION
THIS IS YOUR ROBOT WITH AN ARDUINO BRAIN
When I first started building robots, the microprocessor had not yet been invented. Robot brains were limited to hand-wired boards filled with gompy resistors, super-expensive transistors, and maybe even a relay or two.
Today we have microcontrollers, wonderful micro-miniaturized wonders that combine a computer with the ability to directly connect to lights, alarms, motors, solenoids, sensors, and other physical things. In fact, this whole concept now goes by the catchphrase physical computing. I mention this because physical computing plays directly into building robots. Thats why microcontrollers like the Arduino are so important in robotics.
The Arduino, first designed to help student designers integrate electronics and mechanics into their work, is one of the most popular microcontrollers now available. Its meant as a tool for building projects that sense and control their nearby world.
The Arduino is like a brain in a jar by itself it lacks the ability to detect its environment or manipulate anything. Its up to you to hook up your choice of sensors, motors, and other control electronics, then program the Arduino to do your bidding. And heres where this book comes in: Arduino Robot Bonanza helps you build a half-dozen robots that use the Arduino as a central brain. It shows you how to wire things up, then write programs so your bot follows your commands.
The projects in Arduino Robot Bonanza are designed to be reproducible using ordinary shop tools and average construction skills. Theres no cutting heavy metal or welding, and each of the six robots is constructed using parts that are commonly available. None of the projects rely on hard-to-find or surplus components. While robot building can be an expensive endeavor, all plans in this book favor lower-cost parts, and encourage reuse.
