Each robot needs a 'brain' and the Arduino platform provides an incredibly accessible way to bring robots to life. Arduino-based robots can be used in school projects, in college courses, and for rapidly prototyping industrial applications. So, everyone can easily learn to build and program their own robots with Arduino for hobby and commercial uses!

Unlocking the Power of Arduino in DIY Robots is a comprehensive and practical guide that equips you with the necessary skills and techniques that can be applied in various projects and applications, from automating repetitive tasks in a laboratory to building engaging mobile robots.

Building on basic knowledge of programming and electronics, this book will teach you to choose the right components (such as Arduino boards, sensors, and motors) and write effective codes for your robotics project, including the use of advanced third-party Arduino libraries and interfaces (such as Analog, SPI, I2C, PWM, UART). You'll also learn different ways to command your robots wirelessly, including over Wi-Fi, etc. Complete with project examples from basic to advanced, this book illustrates how to build exciting autonomous robots like a self-balancing telepresence robot.

By the end of this book, you'll be able to design and create your own custom robots for a wide variety of applications.

• How to select the right sensors, motors and Arduino board for your robot
• Understand the applications of different interfaces of an Arduino board
• Write and run the code to communicate with your sensors and motors
• Develop and execute codes for sensor signal conditioning and filtering
• Implement robot behaviors as state machines
• Implement real-time feedback control loops for dynamical systems
• Integrate hardware and software components into a reliable robotic system
• Tune, debug, and improve Arduino-based robotic systems
