Key Features
Build powerful robots with the all new BeagleBone Blue
Communicate with your robot and teach it to detect and respond to its environment
Control walking,rolling,swimming,and flying robots with your iOS and Android mobile devices
Book Description
Beaglebone Blue is effectively a small,light,cheap computer in a similar vein to Raspberry Pi and Arduino. It has all of the extensibility of today's desktop machines,but without the bulk,expense,or noise. And the new features of the BeagleBone Blue make it even easier to use in DIY robotics projects.
This project guide provides step-by-step instructions to allow anyone to use this new,low cost platform in some fascinating robotics projects. By the time you are finished,your projects will be able to see,speak,listen,detect their surroundings,and move in a variety of amazing ways. The book begins with unpacking and powering up the components. This will include guidance on what to purchase and how to connect it all successfully-and a primer on programming the BeagleBone Blue. Chapter by chapter,you will add additional software functionality available from the open source community,including how to make the system see using a webcam,how to hear using a microphone,and how to speak using a speaker. You will then learn to use the new hardware capability of the BeagleBone Blue to make your robots move-including wheeled and legged examples-as well as covering how to add sonar sensors to avoid or find objects,plus wireless control to make your robot truly autonomous. Adding GPS allows the robot to find itself.
Later,you will also learn to remotely control your robot through iOS and Android devices. By the end of this book you will learn how to integrate all of this functionalities so that it can all work together,before developing the most impressive robotics projects: Drone and Submarine.
