Take your robotics skills to the next level with this guide to
mastering LEGO(R) MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor and LEGO(R) SPIKE Prime.
You've learned the basics of LEGO(R) robotics with your Robot Inventor
or SPIKE Prime kit, and now you're ready for more. This full-color,
illustrated guidebook to programming your robotic creations teaches you
everything you need to know to level up your engineering skills, using
examples relevant to both sets. In no time, you'll be coding movements
for autonomous robot vehicles, building interactive games, making
LEGO(R) musical instruments, and more.
Rather than feature step-by-step instructions for building a handful of
models, you'll find essential information and expert tips and tricks for
designing, building, and programming your own robotic creations. The
book teaches the fundamentals of writing text-based code for your robots
using the popular Python programming language; shows how to harness
gears, linkages, and other mechanisms to create all kinds of motion; and
explores sophisticated programming techniques for popular applications
such as line following and obstacle avoidance, using both Python and
Scratch-based Word Blocks. As you learn, loads of challenges and
open-ended projects will inspire you to try out ideas.
