Book DescriptionBuild and create interactive, sensor-based robots using your LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 kitKey FeaturesOptimize the use of multiple sensors to build a robot that navigates and interacts with its environmentWork with both the Home Edition and the Educational Edition of the LEGO EV3 Mindstorms kitA practical guide with step-by-step building instructions to help you create your very own robotBook DescriptionThe LEGO EV3 is a programmable LEGO brick that can control different motors and take input from buttons and numerous sensors, allowing you to build sophisticated robots from a simple children's system of modular bricks. You can build your very own robot using your EV3 kit, but there is a lack of good documentation in regards to the details of robot building!This book is a practical guide that will show you how to advance beyond the basic lessons included in your EV3 kit, combine core programming commands, and implement tested design principles when building your own robot. You will become familiar with resources beyond your EV3 kit and enhance your robot designs.What you will learnDesign a robot for optimum navigation and place sensors for optimal calibrationControl multiple robots through a master robotDecipher the advanced programs developed by LEGOAccount for weight and balance issues in your designCalibrate the sensors using buttons on the robotUtilize core programming concepts such as loops, case structures, calculations, variables, and arraysEnhance your programs with proportional and PID control
