The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Laboratory: Build, Program, and Experiment with Five Wicked Cool Robots

The LEGO^� MINDSTORMS^� EV3 set offers many exciting features that can be overwhelming to understand. It may take a long time to learn how to use the advanced mechanisms and programming features without expert guidance. In The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Laboratory, author Daniele Benedettelli, a 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. These robots can do things like avoid obstacles, walk on two legs, and even exhibit autonomous behavior. The book also covers math, engineering, and robotics concepts that will aid in creating your own amazing robots. Throughout the book, there are programming experiments to challenge you, as well as comics and illustrations to keep things fun. You will build and program five cool robots: ROV3R, a vehicle that can follow a line, avoid obstacles, and clean a room; WATCHGOOZ3, a bipedal robot that can patrol a room using the Brick Program App without a computer; SUP3R CAR, a rear-wheel-drive armored car with a two-lever remote control; SENTIN3L, a walking tripod that can record and execute color-coded commands; and T-R3X, a fearsome bipedal robot that can find and chase down prey. With The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Laboratory as your guide, you will become an EV3 master in no time.
