Take your LEGO(R) robotics skills to the next level. You've learned the basics of LEGO(R) robotics, and now you're ready for more.
Mastering LEGO(R) MINDSTORMS teaches you everything you need to know to level up your robotics engineering skills, using examples compatible with the LEGO(R) MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor and SPIKE Prime sets. In no time, you'll be programming autonomous robot vehicles, interactive games, 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.
將你的LEGO(R)機器人技能提升到更高的水平。
你已經學會了LEGO(R)機器人的基礎知識，現在你準備好迈向更高層次了。《掌握LEGO(R) MINDSTORMS》教你一切你需要知道的，以提升你的機器人工程技能，並使用與LEGO(R) MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor和SPIKE Prime套件兼容的示例。很快，你就能夠編程自主機器人車輛、互動遊戲、LEGO(R)音樂樂器等等。相比於提供一些模型的逐步構建指南，這本書提供了設計、構建和編程自己機器人創作所需的基本信息、專家技巧和訣竅。本書教授使用流行的Python編程語言為機器人編寫基於文本的代碼的基礎知識；展示如何利用齒輪、連桿和其他機構創造各種運動；並探索流行應用（如線跟隨和避障）的高級編程技巧，使用Python和基於Scratch的Word Blocks。在學習的過程中，大量的挑戰和開放式項目將激發你嘗試新的想法。
