Paperback. Practical Robotics EngineeringHands-On Projects in Robot Programming, Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, Autonomous Systems, and Intelligent Robotics ApplicationsHow can a robot interpret its surroundings, make decisions, and perform tasks with limited human intervention?Practical Robotics Engineering explores the engineering concepts and practical techniques used to develop modern robotic systems. The book connects programming, computer vision, artificial intelligence, sensing, control, and autonomous operation to show how individual technologies can be combined into functional robotics applications.Rather than focusing only on theoretical concepts, this book takes a practical approach to robotics engineering.

A capable robotic system depends on the interaction between hardware, software, perception, computation, control, and decision-making. This book examines those connections and explains how they contribute to practical robotic applications.The hands-on approach encourages readers to move from concepts toward implementation. By working through practical ideas and project-oriented examples, readers can examine how robotic systems are structured, how algorithms interact with physical components, and how engineering decisions affect system performance.Computer vision and artificial intelligence are also becoming important components of robotics. Robots can use cameras and other sensors to collect information, process their surroundings, identify relevant features, and respond according to programmed objectives. Understanding these technologies provides a foundation for exploring more advanced autonomous systems.The book also considers the challenges of building reliable robotic applications. Real-world robotics involves uncertainty, sensor limitations, computational constraints, changing environments, and interactions between multiple system components.

Hands-On Projects in Robot Programming, Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, Autonomous Systems, and Intelligent Robotics Applications
How can a robot interpret its surroundings, make decisions, and perform tasks with limited human intervention?
Practical Robotics Engineering explores the engineering concepts and practical techniques used to develop modern robotic systems. The book connects programming, computer vision, artificial intelligence, sensing, control, and autonomous operation to show how individual technologies can be combined into functional robotics applications.
Rather than focusing only on theoretical concepts, this book takes a practical approach to robotics engineering. Readers are introduced to the reasoning, system architecture, algorithms, and development considerations involved in designing and implementing robotic solutions.
Inside the book, readers explore:
-
Robot software architecture and programming concepts
-
Practical approaches to developing robotic applications
-
Sensors and data collection for robotic perception
-
Computer vision concepts for interpreting visual information
-
Image processing techniques used in robotics
-
Artificial intelligence concepts applied to robotic systems
-
Robot perception and environmental understanding
-
Autonomous navigation and decision-making
-
Motion planning and robotic control
-
Simulation and testing of robotic systems
-
Integration of hardware, software, sensors, and algorithms
-
Intelligent robotic applications and system design
-
Engineering challenges involved in autonomous robotics
-
Methods for testing, evaluating, and improving robotic systems
Modern robotics requires more than mechanical construction. A capable robotic system depends on the interaction between hardware, software, perception, computation, control, and decision-making. This book examines those connections and explains how they contribute to practical robotic applications.
The hands-on approach encourages readers to move from concepts toward implementation. By working through practical ideas and project-oriented examples, readers can examine how robotic systems are structured, how algorithms interact with physical components, and how engineering decisions affect system performance.
Computer vision and artificial intelligence are also becoming important components of robotics. Robots can use cameras and other sensors to collect information, process their surroundings, identify relevant features, and respond according to programmed objectives. Understanding these technologies provides a foundation for exploring more advanced autonomous systems.
The book also considers the challenges of building reliable robotic applications. Real-world robotics involves uncertainty, sensor limitations, computational constraints, changing environments, and interactions between multiple system components. Developing effective solutions therefore requires careful testing, analysis, and iterative improvement.
Whether you are studying robotics engineering, developing technical projects, exploring autonomous systems, or building practical knowledge of intelligent robotics, Practical Robotics Engineering provides a structured framework for connecting theory with application.
From robot programming and computer vision to artificial intelligence, autonomous navigation, and intelligent robotic systems, this book explores the engineering processes behind practical robotics development.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
