They vacuum our houses, work in our factories, help us learn at school, and play with us at home. They sample rocks from other planets, survey disaster zones from the air, and bring back images from the bottom of the ocean.Explore the roles robots play in our world and learn about the history, engineering, and key players from STEAM education expert Kathy Ceceri. Bots! Robotics Engineering with Makerspace Activities for Kids contains loads of hands-on robotics projects that help kids learn design, engineering, and coding. Find out what the future of robotics may bring, and how to develop your own innovative robots!It's just as beginner-friendly as our friend Mike Barela's Getting Started with Adafruit Circuit Playground Express, and we love seeing more books covering Microsoft MakeCode! #MakeRobotFriend!TABLE OF CONTENTSTimelineIntro: The World of RoboticsRobot … Or Not a Robot?Chapter 1: The Development of RoboticsA Vibrating ArtBotChapter 2: Robotic Shapes and JobsEdible Robot SkinCreate an Inflatable RobotRobot Test PlatformChapter 3: Actuators: Making Robots MoveSolar WobbleBotPassive Dynamic Mini-WalkerChapter 4: Effectors: How Robots Do ThingsRobotic HandHydraulic Robotic ArmChapter 5: Sensors: How Robots Know What is Going OnTilt SensorDigital Camera IR DetectorPressure SensorChapter 6: Controllers: How Robots ThinkWrite a Pencil-and-Paper Logo ProgramProgram a Virtual Musical Robot with ScratchBuild and Program a Recycled Robot with MakeCodeChapter 7: AI, Social Robots, and the Future of RoboticsTeach a Robot to Play NIMBLE","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":5027,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-4348","price":36.46,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":16,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
