Creating Cool MINDSTORMS NXT Robots
You are a LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT owner, aren’t you? If you have this book in your hands, maybe you’ve already tried (and maybe exhausted) the possibilities offered by the NXT retail set, and the building and programming guides. If not, I recommend that you use those official LEGO guides to start. So...

You are a LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT owner, aren’t you?
If you have this book in your hands, maybe you’ve already tried (and maybe exhausted)
the possibilities offered by the NXT retail set, and the building and programming guides. If
not, I recommend that you use those official LEGO guides to start. So, you should have at least
a basic idea of what a robot is—otherwise I suspect that you would not even have thought about
reading this book!
I began to think of this book as a way to introduce LEGO users to some advanced topics of
robotic programming, always keeping it simple, without scaring anyone. In the few theoretical
discussions you’ll find, you won’t have time to get bored: all the theory is explained in order to
understand the practice better.
This book is divided into two parts. With the first, I want to break away from the same
boring wheeled robots—there are too many of them around. We’re used to vehicles; we want
to move on legs! So, this part is devoted to walking robots—bipeds in particular. In Chapter 1,
I tried to summarize the state of the art for LEGO bipedal walkers. Subsequent Chapters 2, 4,
and 5 present three biped robots in order of complexity. Chapter 3 is the only real theoretical
chapter, where you learn the finite state machine software technique to give your robot personality
and autonomous behaviors. In Chapter 6, the NXT Turtle is described. This is a quadruped
robot, featuring a funny autonomous behavior.
The second part is about wheeled robots. I could not write a book without them. That’s also
because, apart from the Mine Sweeper (an object-collecting vehicle), the other wheeled robot is
the great JohnNXT: a replica of Johnny 5, robot star from the Short Circuit 1980s movies. I haven’t
counted the number of people who directly contacted me to ask for JohnNXT instructions, but
they are in the hundreds. So, JohnNXT could not be missing from this book. |
