"Robot Builder. The beginner's guide to building robots." Review of the Spanish version.


This book for beginners but also for the intermediate ones introduce you to a wide spectrum of robots, and explains in detail how to assemble the mechanical parts but also the electronic components and the programming, mainly for Arduino. For example it speaks about robots on wheels, the different types of wheels, the chassis, the power to move them, like batteries or solar panels and finally how to build an educational robot on wheels. I liked the chapter where speaks about solar power and solar panels that can be joined on serial or on parallel. I also was surprised by the aquatic robots specially those move by computer fan.

The Spanish version of "Robot Builder".
On the other hand it sins that most of the little robots in the book are rudimentary ones, or are short of aesthetic. And the author talks very few about the interesting drones. Personally I am not very interested in the tools and box of tools and the mechanical parts, and how to build very ugly chassis. Nevertheless I think the book deserves the pity
