商品描述

Learn how to program robotic vehicles with ardupilot libraries and pixhawk autopilot, both of which are open source technologies with a global scope. This book is focused on quadcopters but the knowledge is easily extendable to three-dimensional vehicles such as drones, submarines, and rovers.

Pixhawk and the ardupilot libraries have grown dramatically in popularity due to the fact that the hardware and software offer a real-time task scheduler, huge data processing capabilities, interconnectivity, low power consumption, and a global developer support.  

This book shows you how take your robotic programming skills to the next level. From hardware to software, Advanced Robotic Vehicles Programming links theory with practice in the development of unmanned vehicles. By the end of this book, you’ll learn the pixhawk software and ardupilot libraries to develop your own autonomous vehicles. 

 

What You'll Learn

  • Model and implement elementary controls in any unmanned vehicle
  • Select hardware and software components during the design process of an unmanned vehicle
  • Use other compatible hardware and software development packages
  • Understand popular scientific and technical nomenclature in the field
  • Identify relevant complexities and processes for the operation of an unmanned vehicle

Who This Book Is For

Undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, makers, hobbyists, and those who want to go beyond basic programming of an Arduino for any kind of robotic vehicle.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

學習如何使用ardupilot和pixhawk自動駕駛系統程式庫來編程機器人載具，這兩者都是具有全球範圍的開源技術。本書專注於四旋翼飛行器，但所學知識也可以輕鬆擴展到包括無人機、潛水艇和漫遊車在內的三維載具。

由於硬體和軟體提供了實時任務排程器、強大的數據處理能力、互聯性、低功耗和全球開發者支援，Pixhawk和ardupilot程式庫的受歡迎程度急劇增長。

本書將幫助您將機器人編程技能提升到更高水平。從硬體到軟體，高級機器人載具編程將理論與實踐相結合，開發無人載具。通過閱讀本書，您將學習使用pixhawk軟體和ardupilot程式庫來開發自己的自主載具。

您將學到什麼

- 在任何無人載具中建模和實現基本控制
- 在無人載具設計過程中選擇硬體和軟體組件
- 使用其他相容的硬體和軟體開發套件
- 理解該領域中常見的科學和技術術語
- 確定無人載具操作的相關複雜性和過程

本書適合對象

本科生、研究生、研究人員、製造者、愛好者以及想要超越基本Arduino編程的任何類型機器人載具的人。

作者簡介

Julio Mendoza-Mendoza earned his computing doctoral degree at CIC IPN in 2016, where he specialized in underactuated robotics, UAS, and intelligent and nonlinear control. He also earned his advanced-technologies master degree and mechatronics-engineering bachelor at UPIITA IPN, in 2011 and 2008 respectively. Currently, Julio is working on 5 patents related to his research field and developing his flying serial-robot manipulator theory at FI UNAM through his postdoctoral 2017 DGAPA grant.
V. J. Gonzalez-Villela received his B.Eng. degree in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering and the M.Eng. degree in Electrical Engineering in 1987 and 1993, respectively, from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), and a Ph.D. degree in Kinematics, Dynamics, and Nonlinear Systems applied to Mobile Robot Modelling and Control from Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK, in 2006. He is currently a Titular Professor in the Department of Mechatronics Engineering, UNAM. His research focuses on Mobile, Hybrid and Adaptive Robots, and Artificial Intuition.
