Robotics: DISCOVER THE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF THE FUTURE with 20 PROJECTS
Hardcover
(Nomad Press Aug. 1, 2012)
This fun and educational introduction to the exciting field of robotics--the science of designing, building, and operating robots--gives kids the basic tools for creating their own robots using ordinary craft materials and parts salvaged from recycled toys and other household devices. Budding roboticists will learn how to create working models of robotic hands and arms, write "pencil and paper" computer programs, and design circuits that light up or make noise when sensors are activated. They'll also find out how other fields like chemistry, biology, and psychology are contributing to new breakthroughs, and see how artists, musicians and fashion designers are using robotics technology in their own work. Robotics: Discover the Science and Technology of the Future opens the door to the all-important STEM subjects -- Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math -- while engaging kids in activities that let them use all their talents to come up with creative solutions to tricky problems and figure out how things work.
