Practical Field Robotics: A Systems Approach

Practical Field Robotics: A Systems Approach is an introductory book in the area of field robotics. It approaches the subject with a systems design methodology, showing the reader every important decision made in the process of planning, designing, making and testing a field robot.

Key features:

• Takes a practical approach to field robotics, presenting the design and implementation of a robot from start to end
• Provides multiple robot examples including those used in in nuclear service, underground coalmining and mowing
• Bridges the gap between existing mathematically based texts and the real work that goes on in research labs all over the world
• Establishes a structured approach to thinking about hardware and software design
• Includes problems and is accompanied by a website providing supporting videos and additional problems
