Probabilistic Robotics (Intelligent Robotics and Autonomous Agents)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-04-05 Summary: Great Book! ... I consider this book the most valuable resource in the field! If you are really interested in implementing kalman filter localization, particle filter localization or SLAM algorithms, this book really will help you. This book was my reference during my Master Thesis and the algorithms are so comprenhensive that I hadn't any problem to put them running. I think the autors made a really good effort to explain complex mathematical concepts as clearly as possible. Great Job! ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-02-14 Summary: One of the best books that I have ever read. ... This book is essential for anyone that works or make some research on Robotics, especially on Slam. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-09-18 Summary: Excellent resource for implementing SLAM ... This is by far the best resource that I have found for collating a large number of internally consistent SLAM algorithms into a single volume. The book carefully leads the reader through the requirements of SLAM presenting one algorithm at a time, building upon the algorithms presented previously. This approach lends itself very well to develop-while-you-read. If you care to do so, I recommend reading it through once in its entirety and then starting over for the develop-while-you-read approach. The once through does ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Probabilistic robotics is a new and growing area in robotics, concerned with perception and control in the face of uncertainty. Building on the field of mathematical statistics, probabilistic robotics endows robots with a new level of robustness in real-world situations. This book introduces the reader to a wealth of techniques and algorithms in the field. All algorithms are based on a single overarching mathematical foundation. Each chapter provides example implementations in pseudo code,...more

PIC Robotics: A Beginner's Guide to Robotics Projects Using the PIC Micro
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-12 Summary: Exelent seller ... when I saw the book it said that it was used, i thought that it was in bad conditions, but was quite the opposite this was as if it had never been opened. Also the shipping was faster that i tought. The truth is that i am very satisfied with the purchase. I recommend this seller. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2004-09-09 Summary: An excellent way to get started in PIC robotics. ... I've been programming PIC Microcontrollers (with PIC Basic Pro) for a while now. They're really an invaluable tool for the modern electronics hobbyist, and the PIC Basic language couldn't be easier to write with. That being said, this book does assume you have at least some minimal knowledge of Basic, but really you could get by without it (the very point of Basic is that it's supposed to read like plain English -- which it does!), as the function of nearly every line of code is explained. The first few chapters are ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-01-11 Summary: Excellent through & through ... Highly recommended for those somewhat new to PIC, Basic, and robotics. Keep it center-shelf eye-level. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Here's everything the robotics hobbyist needs to harness the power of the PICMicro MCU! In this heavily-illustrated resource, author John Iovine provides plans and complete parts lists for 11 easy-to-build robots each with a PICMicro "brain. The expertly written coverage of the PIC Basic Computer makes programming a snap -- and lots of fun....more
Theory of Applied Robotics: Kinematics, Dynamics, and Control (2nd Edition)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-03-31 Summary: Writers of Computer Graphics Textbooks, please note. ... I wanted a book that covered Inverse Kinematics for animation in computer graphics. What I found was a book that not only went further than my needs, but turned out to be the most comprehensive coverage of IK and associated topics that I have yet come across. All of the material covered needs some preliminary study before reading this book, probably from several sources. However, if anyone should want a full treatment of Rotation,Orientation,Motion and Forward Kinematics, to bring it all together, then this is the ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-16 Summary: Best Textbook on the Subject ... I recently ordered this book for my Robotics class, and it is by far the most comprehensive text I have read on the subject. The topics are clearly defined and equations are effectively derived and arranged. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-10-09 Summary: Good purchase ... I'm enjoying too much this book, I haven't readed it completely but I'm really satisfied with this purchase. I encourage you to buy this book. I've bought this book because I'm a robotics enthusiast and until now I've found answers to almost any question I had about. Really a good job. ...more
