by Mordechai Ben-Ari and Francesco Mondada
Publisher: Springer 2018
ISBN-13: 9783319625331
Number of pages: 308
Description:
This book bridges the gap between playing with robots in school and studying robotics at the upper undergraduate and graduate levels to prepare for careers in industry and research. Robotic algorithms are presented formally, but using only mathematics known by high-school and first-year college students, such as calculus, matrices and probability. Concepts and algorithms are explained through detailed diagrams and calculations.
