Résumé

This essential title in McGraw-Hill's ROBOT DNA SERIES is just what robotics hobbyists need to build an effective drive train using inexpensive, off-the-shelf parts. Leaving heavy-duty tech speak behind, the authors focus on the actual concepts and applications necessary to build – and understand -- these critical force-conveying systems.
If you're hooked on amateur robotics and want a clear, straight-forward guide to the nuts-and-bolts of drive trains, this is the way to go.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO BUILD YOUR OWN ROBOT DRIVE TRAIN:

The Basics of Robot Locomotion
Motor Types: An Overview
Using DC Motors
Using RC Servo Motors
Using Stepper Motors
Motor Mounting
Motor Control
Electronics Interfacing
Wheels and Treads
Locomotion for Multipods
Glossary of Terms/Tables, Formulas
