Animatronics:
A Guide to Animated Holiday Displays
by Edwin Wise
Author Edwin Wise has written the perfect book to help you liven up
the holidays! This hands-on and project-oriented book on animated holiday
displays covers simple, classic projects and advanced motion animation
used in professional mechatronic systems. Along the way, it includes tips
and tricks for sculpting and decorating all your self-operated mechanisms.
While other books on the market describe only static displays, none
provide the advanced hobbyist with the tools needed to create a complex
animated display. Animatronics: A Guide to Animated Holiday Displays is
targeted at the intermediate and advanced builder and covers four broad
categories: • Electrical animations • Pneumatic animations • Servo animations
• Control systems
Also covered are "background" projects that include stationary systems
such as Fog Chillers and how to make water glow under black light. Animatronics
guides you through projects to build and control AC motors and pneumatic
systems inside your animated props. It also includes some overlap with
Wise's previous book, Applied Robotics, dealing with the sensor and MCU
control projects. The Publisher.

Robot
Building for Beginners
by David Cook
Book Description:
Learning robotics by yourself isn't easy, but it helps when the encouragement
comes from an expert who's spent years in the field. Not only does Author
David Cook assist you in understanding the component parts of robot development,
but he also presents valuable techniques that prepare you to achieve new
discoveries on your own.
Cook begins with the anatomy of a homemade robot and gives you the best
advice on how to proceed successfully. General sources for tools and parts
are provided in a consolidated list, and specific parts are recommended
throughout the book. Also, basic safety precautions and essential measuring
and numbering systems are promoted throughout.
Specific tools and parts covered include digital multimeters, motors,
wheels, resistors, LEDs, photoresistors, transistors, chips, gears, nut
drivers, batteries, and more. Robot Building for Beginners is an inspiring
book that provides an essential base of practical knowledge for anyone
getting started in amateur robotics.
