摘要

The robot experimenter anatomy of a robot tools and supplies getting parts building robots of plastic building a basic wooden robot platform building a metal platform constructing high tech robots from toys build a Robotix-based robot build a Lego technic-based robot building a functionoid with Lego mindstorms all about batteries choosing the right motor for the job locomotion with DC motors locomotion with Stepper motors locomotion white Servo motors build a RoverBot build a six-legged walking robot build the HydraBot - walk'n roll! advanced locomotion systems an overview of arm systems build a revolute coordinate arm build a Servo motor-based robotic arm build a polar coordinate arm experimenting with Gripper designs adding the sense of touch fire detection systems robotic eyes collision detection and avoidance navigating through space remote control systems robot control via PC parallel port an overview of robot brains using the BASIC stamp and other microcontrollers robot control with 8051 single board computer creating your own PIC-based Robobug. Appendices: sources reading robot information on the Internet interfacing Logic families and Ics construction charts.
