Open-Source Robotics and Process Control Cookbook : Designing and Building Robust, Dependable Real-time Systems

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In this practical reference, popular author Lewin Edwards shows how to develop robust, dependable real-time systems for robotics and other control applications, using open-source tools. It demonstrates efficient and low-cost embedded hardware and software design techniques, based on Linux as the development platform and operating system and the Atmel AVR as the primary microcontroller. The book provides comprehensive examples of sensor, actuator and control applications and circuits, along with source code for a number of projects. It walks the reader through the process of setting up the Linux-based controller, from creating a custom kernel to customizing the BIOS, to implementing graphical control interfaces. Including detailed design information on: ESBUS PC-host interfaceHost-module communications protocolA speed-controlled DC motor with tach feedback and thermal cut-offA stepper motor controllerA two-axis attitude sensor using a MEMS accelerometerInfrared remote control in Linux using LIRCMachine vision using Video4Linux The Accompanying CD-ROM contains a wealth of design materials, including: Full schematics and source code for the projects describedReady-made disk images for the miniature Linux distribution uses as the basis for the PC-side softwareDistribution archives of source code for all GNU software used, along with application-specific patches where appropriateA free version of the schematic capture and PCB CAD software usedAtmel AVR Studio \* The first-ever book on using open source technology for robotics design! \* Immensely valuable source code and design tools provided on the CD-ROM \* Covers hot topicssuch as GPS navigation, 3-D sensing, and machine vision, all using a Linux platform!
