Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Mobile Robotics: A Practical Introduction (2nd edition) is an excellentintroduction to the foundations and methods used for designing completelyautonomous mobile robots.A fascinating, cutting-edge, research topic, autonomous mobile robotics isnow taught in more and more universities. In this book you are introducedto the fundamental concepts of this complex field via twelve detailed casestudies that show how to build and program real working robots.Topics covered in clued learning, autonomous navigation in unmodified,noisy and unpredictable environments, and high fidelity robot simulation.This new edition has been updated to include a new chapter on noveltydetection, and provides a very practical introduction to mobile roboticsfor a general scientific audience. It is essential reading for 2nd and3rd year undergraduate students and postgraduate students studyingrobotics, artificial intelligence, cognitive science and robotengineering. The update and overview of core concepts in mobile roboticswill assist and encourage practitioners of the field and set challenges toexplore new avenues of research in this exiting field.The author is Senior Lecturer at the Department of Computer Science at theUniversity of Essex.'A very fine overview over the relevant problems to be solved in theattempt to bring intelligence to a moving vehicle.'Professor Dr. Ewald von Puttkamer, University of Kaiserslautern'Case studies show ways of achieving an impressive repertoire of kinds oflearned behaviour, navigation and map-building. The book is an admirableintroduction to this modern approach to mobile robotics and certainlygives a great deal of food for thought. This is an important andthough-provoking book.'Alex M. Andrew in Kybernetes Vol 29 No 4 and Robotica Vol 18. Artikel-Nr. 9781852337261
