Trust and Violence: An Essay on a Modern Relationship

POWER UP YOUR ROBOT WITH LINUX

If you want your robot to have more brains than microcontrollers can deliver — if you want a truly intelligent, high-capability robot — everything you need is right here. Linux Robotics gives you step-by-step directions for Zeppo, a super-smart, single-board-powered robot that can be built by any hobbyist. You also get complete instructions for incorporating Linux single boards into your own unique robotic designs. No programming experience is required. This book includes access to all the downloadable programs you need, plus complete training in doing original programming.
