BeagleBone Robotic Projects - Second Edition

BeagleBone Robotic Projects - Second Edition
by Dr. Richard Grimmett
English | 2017 | ISBN: 1788293134 | 221 Pages | True PDF | 42 MB

BeagleBone Blue is effectively a small, light, cheap computer in a similar vein to Raspberry Pi and Arduino. It has all of the extensibility of today's desktop machines, but without the bulk, expense, or noise. This project guide provides step-by-step instructions that enable anyone to use this new, low-cost platform in some fascinating robotics projects. By the time you are finished, your projects will be able to see, speak, listen, detect their surroundings, and move in a variety of amazing ways.

The book begins with unpacking and powering up the components. This includes guidance on what to purchase and how to connect it all successfully, and a primer on programming the BeagleBone Blue. You will add additional software functionality available from the open source community, including making the system see using a webcam, hear using a microphone, and speak using a speaker.

You will then learn to use the new hardware capability of the BeagleBone Blue to make your robots move, as well as discover how to add sonar sensors to avoid or find objects. Later, you will learn to remotely control your robot through iOS and Android devices. At the end of this book, you will see how to integrate all of these functionalities to work together, before developing the most impressive robotics projects: Drone and Submarine.

What you will learn:

- Power on and configure the BeagleBone Blue
- Get to know Simple programming techniques to enable the unique hardware capabilities of the BeagleBone Blue.
- Connect standard hardware to enable your projects to see, speak, hear, and move
- Build advanced capabilities into your projects, such as GPS and sonar sensors
- Build complex projects that can fly, or go under or on the water
