The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Laboratory

Book Description

The LEGO® MINDSTORMS® EV3 set offers so many new and exciting features that it can be hard to know where to begin. Without the help of an expert, it could take months of experimentation to learn how to use the advanced mechanisms and numerous programming features.

In The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Laboratory, author Daniele Benedettelli, robotics expert and member of the elite LEGO MINDSTORMS Expert Panel, shows you how to use gears, beams, motors, sensors, and programming blocks to create sophisticated robots that can avoid obstacles, walk on two legs, and even demonstrate autonomous behavior. You’ll also dig into related math, engineering, and robotics concepts that will help you create your own amazing robots. Programming experiments throughout will challenge you, while a series of comics and countless illustrations inform the discussion and keep things fun.

As you make your way through the book, you’ll build and program five wicked cool robots:

• ROV3R, a vehicle you can modify to do things like follow a line, avoid obstacles, and even clean a room
• WATCHGOOZ3, a bipedal robot that can be programmed to patrol a room using only the Brick Program App (no computer required!)
• SUP3R CAR, a rear-wheel-drive armored car with an ergonomic two-lever remote control
• SENTIN3L, a walking tripod that can record and execute color-coded sequences of commands
• T-R3X, a fearsome bipedal robot that will find and chase down prey

With The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Laboratory as your guide, you’ll become an EV3 master in no time.

书名：乐高MINDSTORMS EV3实验室

乐高®MINDSTORMS®EV3套装提供了如此多令人兴奋的新功能，以至于很难知道从哪里开始。如果没有专家的帮助，可能需要几个月的实验才能学习如何使用先进的机制和大量的编程功能。

在……里面 乐高MINDSTORMS EV3实验室机器人专家、精英乐高MINDSTORMS专家小组成员Daniele BeneDetelli向你展示了如何使用齿轮、横梁、电机、传感器和编程块来创建复杂的机器人，这些机器人可以避开障碍物，用两条腿行走，甚至可以展示自主行为。您还将深入研究相关的数学、工程和机器人概念，这些概念将帮助您创建自己的令人惊叹的机器人。从头到尾，编程实验都会给你带来挑战，而一系列的漫画和无数的插图会为讨论提供信息，让事情变得有趣。

在你读完这本书的过程中，你将建造五个邪恶的酷炫机器人并对其编程：

• ROV3R，一种你可以改装成遵循路线、避开障碍物甚至打扫房间的交通工具
• WATCHGOOZ3，一个可以编程的两足机器人，只需使用Brick Program App就可以巡逻房间(不需要电脑！)
• SUP3R汽车，后轮驱动装甲车，配有符合人体工程学的两杆遥控器
• SENTIN3L，一个行走的三脚架，可以记录和执行颜色编码的命令序列
• T-R3X，一个可怕的两足机器人，它会发现并追捕猎物

使用 乐高MINDSTORMS EV3实验室 as your guide, you’ll become an EV3 master in no time.
