摘要

From the Publisher: Stiquito: Advanced Experiments with a Simple and Inexpensive Robot begins with an introduction that describes the birth of Stiquito. The chapters that follow describe the building process, its modifications, and its increased load capacity. Other chapters examine designs for simple controllers to enhance the functionality of the robot while giving the robot intelligence and hardware designs for performing independent, intelligent operations. In addition, the book examines further research on the role of logic in a mobile robot's sensors, control, and locomotion; Stiquito's platform for Al; and simulation of a robot guided by vision. Stiquito concludes with a discussion of the future for nitinol-propelled walking robots.
