About this product

Product Information

The Stiquito robot ia a small, inexpensive, six-legged robot thatis intended for use as a research and educational tool. This bookdescribes how to assemble and build Stiquito, provides informationon the design and control of legged robots, illustrates itsresearch uses, and includes the robot kit. The experiments in thetext lead you on a tour of the current state of robotics research.The hobbyist with some digital electronics background will alsofind this book challenging. Stiquito: Advanced Experiments with a simple and InexpensiveRobot begins with an introduction that describes the birth ofStiquito. The chapters that follow describe the building process,its modifications, and its increased load capacity. Other chaptersexamine designs for simple controllers to enhance the functionalityof the robot while giving the robot intelligence and hardwaredesigns for performing independent, intelligent operations. Inaddition, the book examinies further research on the role of logicin a mobile robot's sensors, control, and locomotion; Stiquito'splatform for AI; and  simulation of a robot guided by vision.Stiquito concludes with a discussion of the future fornitinol-propelled walking robots. The Stiquito On-Line Supplement is on the web! This site, http://computer.org/books, has additional informationnot found in the book. Contents: Stiquito Introduction and history Walking Robots Control of Walking Robots Using Stiquito for Research The Future of Stiquito
