Riassunto

The amateur robotics market is maturing every year

There are even several companies that cater specifically to the hobbyist and educational market. With the advent of such organisations as FIRST and KISS robotics, it is the perfect time to release a new and clearly improved version of our powerhouse RBB.

Key features

Covers LEGO to legged robot construction plans to provide a scope from the raw beginner to the intermediate/advanced reader

ALL projects are being revamped to be more usable, more customisable, and more visual -- with illustrations of the final product right at the beginning of the chapter

Eliminates the outdated or "out of tune" chapters that don't appeal to current robot audiences

UNPRECEDENTED author duo -- literally the two grand masters of the robotic world
