About this title

Synopsis:

In this book, we explore an introduction to autonomous robot programming and work towards the development of robots designed to compete in Sumo Robot competitions. We use the MRK-2 Mini Robot Kit created by Sumo Robot League to learn about Arduino-based programming to interact with sensors and allow our robot to navigate in the real world. This book was written to take someone with no prior programming experience and teach them everything they need to know in order to begin the journey down a software development career path. Along the way, this book will teach you how to think like an engineer and design programs to control a robot to meet competition objectives in several different scenarios.

About the Author:

His love of robotics is a new love and he enjoys the thrill of writing code that causes little robots to drive around the room slamming into objects. This is his first book.
