Definitive Guide to LEGO MINDSTORMS 2nd Edition
The LEGO MINDSTORMS Robotics Invention System kit enables anyone to build programmable robots with an assortment of LEGO pieces that snap, slide, and click into place. In this exciting second edition from MINDSTORMS expert Dave Baum, you'll be able to take your robotics experiments to a new level.
Baum takes you step-by-step through the
entire process of building and programming MINDSTORMS robots using both LEGO's RCX code and the author's own, more powerful programming language, Not Quite C (NQC). This edition has been updated with new programs that take advantage of the LEGO MINDSTORMS Robotics Invention System 2.0 and includes instructions for building 14 different robots including Tankbot, Bugbot, and Brick Sorter.
