If you enjoy DIY electronics, projects, software and robots, you’ll find this book intellectually stimulating and immediately useful. With the right parts and a little guidance, you can build robot systems that suit your needs more than overpriced commercial systems can. 20 years ago, robots based on simple 8-bit processors and touch sensors were the norm. Now, it’s possible to build multi-core robots that can react to their surroundings with intelligence. Today’s robots combine sensor readings from accelerometers, gyroscopes and computer vision sensors to learn about their environments. They can respond using sophisticated control algorithms and they can process data both locally and in the cloud. This book, which covers the theory and best practices associated with advanced robot technologies, was written to help roboticists, whether amateur hobbyist or professional, take their designs to the next level. As will be seen, building advanced applications does not require extremely costly robot technology. All that is needed is simply the knowledge of which technologies are out there and how best to use each of them. Each chapter in this book will introduce one of these different technologies and discuss how best to use it in a robotics application. On the hardware side, we’ll cover microcontrollers, servos, and sensors, hopefully inspiring you to design your own awe-inspiring, next-generation systems. On the software side, we’ll cover programming languages, debugging, algorithms, and state machines. We’ll focus on the Arduino, the Parallax Propeller, Revolution Education PICAXE and projects I’ve with which I’ve been involved, including the TBot educational robot, the PropScope oscilloscope, the 12Blocks visual programming language, and the ViewPort development environment. In addition, we’ll serve up a comprehensive introduction to a variety of essential topics, including output (e.g. LEDs, servo motors), and communication technologies (e.g. infrared, audio), that you can use to develop systems that interact to stimuli and communicate with humans and other robots. To make these topics as accessible as possible, handy schematics, sample code and practical tips regarding building and debugging have been included. Hanno Sander Christchurch, New Zealand

Ce livre se concentre davantage sur les aspects pratiques que sur la théorie, et il a un caractère contemplatif, comme si l'auteur regardait des amplificateurs d'en haut. Les éléments de connaissances sont intégrés et placés dans le contexte d’un large aperçu. Même aujourd’hui, les amplificateurs à tubes sonnent toujours bien, peut-être mieux que jamais. Cela est dû en partie au fait que nous avons désormais accès à des composants modernes tels que des transformateurs de sortie toroïdaux, des résistances et des condensateurs de très haute qualité et de nombreux types de fils dotés de bonnes propriétés acoustiques. Les sources audio modernes, telles que les lecteurs CD, et les derniers haut-parleurs haut de gamme nous permettent également d'apprécier à quel point les amplificateurs à tubes reproduisent la musique encore mieux qu'auparavant. Ce nouveau livre de Menno van der Veen examine les amplificateurs à tubes d'un point de vue plus que théorique. Il se concentre principalement sur la phase de conception, au cours de laquelle des décisions doivent être prises concernant le but et les exigences de l'amplificateur, et aborde les questions suivantes : Quel est le rapport entre ces aspects et des critères subjectifs et objectifs ? Quels circuits sonnent le mieux et pourquoi ? Si vous souhaitez développer et commercialiser un amplificateur, à quels problèmes devez-vous vous attendre ? Quelle est la signification et la signification des mesures ? Sont-ils encore significatifs ou ont-ils perdu de leur pertinence ? Grâce à l’énorme puissance de traitement des ordinateurs, nous pouvons désormais mesurer plus de détails que jamais. Comment ces nouvelles méthodes peuvent-elles être appliquées aux amplificateurs à tubes ? Auparavant, il suffisait de mesurer la gamme de fréquences, la puissance et la distorsion d'un amplificateur pour caractériser l'amplificateur. Ces mesures sont-elles encore suffisantes, ou devrions-nous commencer à mesurer en fonction de la façon dont nous entendons, en utilisant de vrais signaux musicaux au lieu des formes d'onde provenant de générateurs de signaux ? L'auteur esquisse un avenir où les mesures d'amplificateurs conformes à notre sens de l'ouïe nous permettront d'aboutir à de nouvelles connaissances. Ce livre se concentre davantage sur les aspects pratiques que sur la théorie, et il a un caractère contemplatif, comme si l'auteur regardait des amplificateurs d'en haut. Les éléments de connaissances sont intégrés et placés dans le contexte d’un large aperçu.

All you need to know about good acoustics and sound systems in performance and worship spaces! Everyone knows that the ability to hear music in balance and to understand speech is essential in any space used for performance or worship. Unfortunately, in the early 21st century, we find that buildings with good acoustics are the exception rather than the rule. Much of the fault leading to this result can be traced to the widespread perception that acoustics is a black art. In fact, scientific acoustics as developed in the last century is a well-defined engineering practice that can lead to predictable excellent results. A basic, non-engineering understanding of acoustics will help building owners, theater managers, ministers and teachers of music, performers, and other professionals to achieve their goals of excellent acoustics in venues with which they work. Performers having a basic understanding of acoustics will be able to make the most of the acoustics of the venue in which they perform. This book helps those responsible for providing good acoustics in performance and worship spaces to understand the variables and choices entailed in proper acoustic design for performance and worship. Practicing acoustical consultants will find the book a useful reference as well. The level of presentation is comfortable and straightforward without being simplistic. If correct acoustical principles are incorporated into the design, renovation, and maintenance of performance and worship venues, good acoustics will be the result.

ARM Cortex-M Embedded Design from 0 to 1 Hobbyists can mash together amazing functional systems using platforms like Arduino or Raspberry Pi, but it is imperative that engineers and product designers understand the foundational knowledge of embedded design. There are very few resources available that describe the thinking, strategies, and processes to take an idea through hardware design and low-level driver development, and successfully build a complete embedded system. Many engineers end up learning the hard way, or never really learn at all. ARM processors are essentially ubiquitous in embedded systems. Design engineers building novel devices must understand the fundamentals of these systems and be able to break down large, complicated ideas into manageable pieces. Successful product development means traversing a huge amount of documentation to understand how to accomplish what you need, then put everything together to create a robust system that will reliably operate and be maintainable for years to come. This book is a case study in embedded design including discussion of the hardware, processor initialization, low‑level driver development, and application interface design for a product. Though we describe this through a specific application of a Cortex-M3 development board, our mission is to help the reader build foundational skills critical to being an excellent product developer. The completed development board is available to maximize the impact of this book, and the working platform that you create can then be used as a base for further development and learning. The Embedded in Embedded program is about teaching fundamental skill sets to help engineers build a solid foundation of knowledge that can be applied in any design environment. With nearly 20 years of experience in the industry, the author communicates the critical skill development that is demanded by companies and essential to successful design. This book is as much about building a great design process, critical thinking, and even social considerations important to developers as it is about technical hardware and firmware design.
