Who This Book Is For

This book is for enthusiasts who want to use the Raspberry Pi to build complex robotics projects. With the aid of the step-by-step instructions in this book, you can construct complex robotics projects that can move, talk, listen, see, swim, or fly. No previous Raspberry Pi robotics experience is assumed, but even experts will find unexpected and interesting information in this invaluable guide.

What You Will Learn

Unbox, power-up, and configure Raspberry Pi with Ubuntu, a powerful version of Linux
Exercise vision control in your projects to distinguish colors, patterns, or movements
Apply and control speech software to enable your projects to speak
Discover external hardware to enable your robotics projects to move
Create complex robotics projects that can move, swim, or even fly
Interact with your projects wirelessly so that they can be truly autonomous
Use the GPIO to communicate with external sensors

In Detail

This book starts with the essentials of turning on the basic hardware. It provides the capability to interpret your commands and have your robot initiate actions. In this second edition, you will learn more specifics on how to use the Raspberry Pi's GPIO pins to communicate with and control a wide range of additional hardware.

Teaching you to use the Raspberry Pi from scratch, this book will discuss a wide range of capabilities that can be achieved with it. These capabilities include voice recognition, human-like speech simulation, computer vision, motor control, GPS location, and wireless control. You will then learn how to combine these capabilities to create your own robotics projects. By the end of the book, you will be able to employ the Raspberry Pi to build some intricate and enthralling robotics projects with ease.
