Making a Truly Autonomous Robot! Provides advanced assembly instructions for making a life-like walking robot using a microcontroller. Introduces readers to "Stiquito Controlled," an autonomous walking robot that resembles a "walking-stick" insect. Contains a microcontroller board that provides the control to allow Stiquito to walk on its own! Contents: Forward * Preface * An Introduction to Robotics and Stiquito * Introduction to Embedded Systems and the Stiquito Controller Board * PCB Layout and Manufacturing * Building Stiquito Controlled * Stiquito Programming using Texas Instruments MSP430F1122 * Two-Degree-of-Freeedom Stiquito Robot * Optimizing the Stiquito Robot for Speed * More Stiquitos Controlled * Appendix A - Author Bios * Appendix B - Sources of Materials for Stiquito * Appendix C - Glossary. Includes: Microcontroller Based Stiquito Robot Kit! Note: The Programmers kit (sold elsewhere in this section) is not required. The Microcontroller is pre-programmed for you.
