Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A fully updated and expanded edition of Don Norman's classic and influential work, which pioneered the application of cognitive science to design. Even the smartest among us can feel inept as we try to figure out the shower control in a hotel or attempt to navigate an unfamiliar television set or stove. When The Design of Everyday Things was published in 1988, cognitive scientist Don Norman provocatively proposed that the fault lies not in ourselves, but in design that ignores the needs and psychology of people. Fully revised to keep the timeless principles of psychology up to date with ever-changing new technologies, The Design of Everyday Things is a powerful appeal for good design, and a reminder of how-and why-some products satisfy while others only disappoint. A fully updated and expanded edition of Don Norman's classic and influential work, which pioneered the application of cognitive science to design. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Oblong (10 x 12 inches). 173 pages. Duotone photographs. Pictorial boards. First edition. Ross went into the surf itself to photograph storm-tossed waves during hurricanes, wearing a wet suit, flotation vest and a rope tethering him to his assistant on the beach. The results are stunning images of this scarcely seen natural environment, at once representational and abstract. A fine copy save a few trivial bumps to extremities of boards.…

Graziano, Anne / Keller, Eliyahu, ed. Thresholds 46. Scatter. Cambridge, Mass.], Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2018, 364pp., sewn PAPERBACK, very good. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Department of Architecture - Includes an essay on architecture on East German postage stamps and one on architecture in East German film. - As with many MIT Press books the layout makes the book almost unreadable, at times farcical in design, but nevertheless interesting.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Mobile robots range from the Mars Pathfinder mission's teleoperated Sojourner to the cleaning robots in the Paris Metro. This text offers students and other interested readers an introduction to the fundamentals of mobile robotics, spanning the mechanical, motor, sensory, perceptual, and cognitive layers the field comprises. The text focuses on mobility itself, offering an overview of the mechanisms that allow a mobile robot to move through a real world environment to perform its tasks, including locomotion, sensing, localization, and motion planning. It synthesizes material from such fields as kinematics, control theory, signal analysis, computer vision, information theory, artificial intelligence, and probability theory. The book presents the techniques and technology that enable mobility in a series of interacting modules. Each chapter treats a different aspect of mobility, as the book moves from low-level to high-level details. It covers all aspects of mobile robotics, including software and hardware design considerations, related technologies, and algorithmic techniques.] This second edition has been revised and updated throughout, with 130 pages of new material on such topics as locomotion, perception, localization, and planning and navigation. Problem sets have been added at the end of each chapter. Bringing together all aspects of mobile robotics into one volume, Introduction to Autonomous Mobile Robots can serve as a textbook or a working tool for beginning practitioners. The second edition of a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of mobile robotics, from algorithms to mechanisms.
