Now you have your own Wall-E robot that can run autonomously or be controlled remotely. You could also use the principles described in Chapter 2, Building Your Own Futuristic Robot, to add the ability to respond to voice commands. You've now mastered these two projects that let you explore on land. Your next project will be a fish so that you can explore underwater.

You're reading from Raspberry Pi Robotic Projects - Third Edition
Dr. Richard Grimmett has been fascinated by computers and electronics from his very first programming project, which used Fortran on punch cards. He has bachelor's and master's degrees in electrical engineering and a PhD in leadership studies. He also has 26 years of experience in the radar and telecommunications industries, and even has one of the original brick phones. He now teaches computer science and electrical engineering at Brigham Young University, Idaho, where his office is filled with his many robotics projects.

Jon Witts has been working within the IT industry since 2002 and specifically within Educational IT since 2004. He was introduced to Linux back in 2001 through his collaboration with two German artists who were visiting the arts organisation he was then working with. Having studied Fine Arts and Educational Technology and sought to innovate with open and accessible digital technologies within his creative practice, Jon is happiest when deconstructing technology and finding its limits.
Jon has embedded within his school the use of Raspberry Pi computers, as an integral part of the delivery of the school's Computer Science curriculum as well as to run various school clubs and projects. Jon is a Raspberry Pi Certified Educator and also helps to organise and run the Hull Raspberry Jam events.
I would like to thank my wife, Sally and our three daughters for putting up with all the cables and compoents around the house, and not least for being so tolerant of the need to dodge the robots racing round the kitchen floor!
