Description

If you are interested in how electronic equipment works and would like to build your own robot, but you lack knowledge of the world of electrical engineering, this book is just for you.

The author, starting from the basic principles of electronics, through an introduction to elementary mechanics, leads the reader to build a simple robot. Numerous illustrations included in the book make it easier to understand the subject. The book is also an ideal reading for parents who want to spend time with their children in an interesting way and show them how the world around us works.

During the reading you will find out:

  • What is electric current and how to read schemes of simple circuits.
  • How a battery and motor work and how to use this knowledge in practice.
  • How to measure and calculate the parameters of electrical components.
  • What is the relationship between switches, mathematical logic and the basis of digital devices.
  • How to apply elementary solutions in the field of mechanics.
  • How to build your own robot with a little help.

In our offer you will also findsets for building robots.
