What this book covers

Chapter 1, Adding Raspberry Pi to an RC Vehicle, shows you how to add Raspberry Pi to an existing toy, such as an old RC car or truck, to make it "new" again.

Chapter 2, Adding Raspberry Pi to a Humanoid Robot, covers how to add Raspberry Pi to robots, such as the Robosapien line from WowWee, to add voice commands and make them more versatile.

Chapter 3, Building a Tracked Vehicle That Can Plan Its Own Path, explains how to build a tracked robot containing sensors so that it can map the position of a set of objects.

Chapter 4, Building a Robot That Can Play Laser Tag, covers how to use the capabilities of Raspberry Pi to build a wheeled robot that can play laser tag.

Chapter 5, A Robot That Can Draw, introduces the capability of external dedicated servo controllers that can make controlling the arms and legs of the robot much easier. This is done using servos, whose position can be controlled using our system.

Chapter 6, A Robot That Can Play Air Hockey, explains how to use stepper motors and an advanced vision system to build a robot that can plan air hockey using more power and precision.

Chapter 7, A Robot That Can Fly, explains that after building a robot that can walk, talk, or play air hockey, you can build a robot that can fly.
