Book Description
Over the last few years, robotics has progressed greatly from being a specialized field of study to a key element of modern technology that will boost efficiency and productivity going forward. Robots are becoming more and more important in our daily lives, aiding with everything from industrial automation to service robotics. These days, robots are even used in unmanned vehicles, robotic surgery, computer-aided manufacturing and industrial automation. Robots serve human by performing a wide range of jobs. Robots are becoming self-sufficient and it can work with people in an efficient way because of its improved safety features. Robots can do significant applications using technologies such as Extended Reality, Digital Twin Development, Cloud Platforms, Computer Vision etc. Artificial intelligence and machine learning makes the robot smart and intelligent. The goal of this book is to provide readers with a thorough understanding of robotics, covering everything from its fundamental ideas to modern technologies in an understandable way. This learning journey from ROS1 to ROS2 also includes bridging with various technologies and tools. This book intends to support robotics innovation among students, researchers, robotic enthusiasts, and robotic engineers in the industry.

Pages : 449
Book Description
Build exciting robotics projects such as mobile manipulators, self-driving cars, and industrial robots powered by ROS, machine learning, and virtual reality Key FeaturesCreate and program cool robotic projects using powerful ROS librariesBuild industrial robots like mobile manipulators to handle complex tasksLearn how reinforcement learning and deep learning are used with ROSBook Description Nowadays, heavy industrial robots placed in workcells are being replaced by new age robots called cobots, which don't need workcells. They are used in manufacturing, retail, banks, energy, and healthcare, among other domains. One of the major reasons for this rapid growth in the robotics market is the introduction of an open source robotics framework called the Robot Operating System (ROS). This book covers projects in the latest ROS distribution, ROS Melodic Morenia with Ubuntu Bionic (18.04). Starting with the fundamentals, this updated edition of ROS Robotics Projects introduces you to ROS-2 and helps you understand how it is different from ROS-1. You'll be able to model and build an industrial mobile manipulator in ROS and simulate it in Gazebo 9. You'll then gain insights into handling complex robot applications using state machines and working with multiple robots at a time. This ROS book also introduces you to new and popular hardware such as Nvidia's Jetson Nano, Asus Tinker Board, and Beaglebone Black, and allows you to explore interfacing with ROS. You'll learn as you build interesting ROS projects such as self-driving cars, making use of deep learning, reinforcement learning, and other key AI concepts. By the end of the book, you'll have gained the confidence to build interesting and intricate projects with ROS. What you will learnGrasp the basics of ROS and understand ROS applicationsUncover how ROS-2 is different from ROS-1Handle complex robot tasks using state machinesCommunicate with multiple robots and collaborate to build apps with themExplore ROS capabilities with the latest embedded boards such as Tinker Board S and Jetson NanoDiscover how machine learning and deep learning techniques are used with ROSBuild a self-driving car powered by ROSTeleoperate your robot using Leap Motion and a VR headsetWho this book is for If you’re a student, hobbyist, professional, or anyone with a passion for learning robotics and interested in learning about algorithms, motion control, and perception capabilities from scratch, this book is for you. This book is also ideal for anyone who wants to build a new product and for researchers to make the most of what’s already available to create something new and innovative in the field of robotics.
