If you enjoy DIY electronics, projects, software and robots, you’ll find this book intellectually stimulating and immediately useful. With the right parts and a little guidance, you can build robot systems that suit your needs more than overpriced commercial systems can. 20 years ago, robots based on simple 8-bit processors and touch sensors were the norm. Now, it’s possible to build multi-core robots that can react to their surroundings with intelligence. Today’s robots combine sensor readings from accelerometers, gyroscopes and computer vision sensors to learn about their environments. They can respond using sophisticated control algorithms and they can process data both locally and in the cloud. This book, which covers the theory and best practices associated with advanced robot technologies, was written to help roboticists, whether amateur hobbyist or professional, take their designs to the next level. As will be seen, building advanced applications does not require extremely costly robot technology. All that is needed is simply the knowledge of which technologies are out there and how best to use each of them. Each chapter in this book will introduce one of these different technologies and discuss how best to use it in a robotics application. On the hardware side, we’ll cover microcontrollers, servos, and sensors, hopefully inspiring you to design your own awe-inspiring, next-generation systems. On the software side, we’ll cover programming languages, debugging, algorithms, and state machines. We’ll focus on the Arduino, the Parallax Propeller, Revolution Education PICAXE and projects I’ve with which I’ve been involved, including the TBot educational robot, the PropScope oscilloscope, the 12Blocks visual programming language, and the ViewPort development environment. In addition, we’ll serve up a comprehensive introduction to a variety of essential topics, including output (e.g. LEDs, servo motors), and communication technologies (e.g. infrared, audio), that you can use to develop systems that interact to stimuli and communicate with humans and other robots. To make these topics as accessible as possible, handy schematics, sample code and practical tips regarding building and debugging have been included. Hanno Sander Christchurch, New Zealand

This book details the use of the ARM Cortex-M family of processors and the Arduino Uno in practical CAN bus based projects. Inside, it gives a detailed introduction to the architecture of the Cortex-M family whilst providing examples of popular hardware and software development kits. Using these kits helps to simplify the embedded design cycle considerably and makes it easier to develop, debug, and test a CAN bus based project. The architecture of the highly popular ARM Cortex-M processor STM32F407VGT6 is described at a high level by considering its various modules. In addition, the use of the mikroC Pro for ARM and Arduino Uno CAN bus library of functions are described in detail. This book is written for students, for practising engineers, for hobbyists, and for everyone else who may need to learn more about the CAN bus and its applications. The book assumes that the reader has some knowledge of basic electronics. Knowledge of the C programming language will be useful in later chapters of the book, and familiarity with at least one microcontroller will be an advantage, especially if the reader intends to develop microcontroller based projects using CAN bus. The book should be useful source of reference to anyone interested in finding an answer to one or more of the following questions: What bus systems are available for the automotive industry? What are the principles of the CAN bus? What types of frames (or data packets) are available in a CAN bus system? How can errors be detected in a CAN bus system and how reliable is a CAN bus system? What types of CAN bus controllers are there? What are the advantages of the ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers? How can one create a CAN bus project using an ARM microcontroller? How can one create a CAN bus project using an Arduino microcontroller? How can one monitor data on the CAN bus?

All you need to know about good acoustics and sound systems in performance and worship spaces! Everyone knows that the ability to hear music in balance and to understand speech is essential in any space used for performance or worship. Unfortunately, in the early 21st century, we find that buildings with good acoustics are the exception rather than the rule. Much of the fault leading to this result can be traced to the widespread perception that acoustics is a black art. In fact, scientific acoustics as developed in the last century is a well-defined engineering practice that can lead to predictable excellent results. A basic, non-engineering understanding of acoustics will help building owners, theater managers, ministers and teachers of music, performers, and other professionals to achieve their goals of excellent acoustics in venues with which they work. Performers having a basic understanding of acoustics will be able to make the most of the acoustics of the venue in which they perform. This book helps those responsible for providing good acoustics in performance and worship spaces to understand the variables and choices entailed in proper acoustic design for performance and worship. Practicing acoustical consultants will find the book a useful reference as well. The level of presentation is comfortable and straightforward without being simplistic. If correct acoustical principles are incorporated into the design, renovation, and maintenance of performance and worship venues, good acoustics will be the result.

Steeds vaker komen we op smartphones en tablet-computers het besturingssysteem Android tegen. Het aantal toepassingsprogramma's – de zogenaamde applicaties of kortweg apps - waarmee de apparaten individueel aan de voorkeuren en wensen van de gebruiker kunnen worden aangepast, neemt van dag tot dag toe. En de steeds betere technische uitvoering en uitrusting van de apparaten maken het nu mogelijk toepassingen te 'draaien' waarvoor een paar jaar geleden nog een desktop-PC of speciale hardware vereist was. Inmiddels kan elke smartphone de exacte (geografische) positie bepalen, video's opnemen – en nog veel meer. Maar bij het individualiseren van onze smartphone hoeven we ons niet te beperken tot kant-en-klare applicaties! Het is namelijk helemaal niet zo moeilijk om zelf Android-apparaten te programmeren en eigen apps te schrijven. Dit boek vormt een inleiding tot het programmeren van apps voor Android-apparaten. De werking van het Android-systeem wordt op begrijpelijke manier uitgelegd en we zien stap voor stap hoe applicaties kunnen worden geprogrammeerd. Aan de hand van een groot aantal voorbeelden worden allerlei toepassingsmogelijkheden getoond. Het scala loopt van eenvoudige rekenprogramma's via het uitlezen van sensoren en GPS-data tot het programmeren van applicaties voor internetcommunicatie. Naast het schrijven van applicaties in de programmeertaal Java wordt in dit boek ook besproken hoe apps met behulp van Javascript of PHP-scripts kunnen worden geprogrammeerd.

Der PC wird schon lange nicht mehr nur als einfacher Computer verwendet, sondern hat sich zu einem Universalwerkzeug entwickelt. Dieses Buch richtet sich an diejenigen, die vorhandene oder selbstgebaute Hardware über den Computer steuern wollen. Der Einsatz von Visual Basic für die schnelle Entwicklung von Elektronikapplikationen öffnet Ihnen eine Welt, die über die Anschlüsse des PCs hinausreicht. Sobald Sie sich mit Visual Basic, seiner Entwicklungsumgebung und den angebotenen Toolsets vertraut gemacht haben, werden Dinge wie die serielle Kommunikation, Druckerports, Bitbanging, Protokoll-Emulation, die ISA-, USB- und Ethernet-Schnittstellen und die Fernsteuerung von Mess- und Testaufbauten über den GPIB-Bus in allen Einzelheiten behandelt. Zu jedem Punkt gibt es einen übersichtlichen und lauffähigen Programmcode und wo nötig existieren Schaltpläne, mit denen Sie Ihr Projekt in kurzer Zeit einsatzfähig machen können. Darüber hinausgehend erläutert dieses Buch den Umgang mit Debug-Tools bei der Suche nach Hardware-Adressen, den Aufbau einer Verbindung über TCP/IP- und UDP-Sockets und Sie lernen sogar eigene Internetserver zu programmieren. Oder wollen Sie Ihre Hardware über USB oder Ethernet anbinden und mit Visual Basic steuern? Auch die Kommunikation zwischen Programmen, DDE und das neue Grafik-Interface von Windows XP werden behandelt. Alle Programmbeispiele lassen sich mit Visual Basic 5.0, 6.0, .NET oder 2005 kompilieren. Auch die Unterschiede zwischen Visual Basic Classic und Visual Basic NET/2005 sind ausführlich erläutert.
