DESCRIPTION:
Adapted from Alonzo Kelly's graduate and undergraduate courses, the content of the book reflects current approaches to developing effective mobile robots. Complex subjects are reduced to implementable algorithms extracted from real systems wherever possible, to enhance the real-world relevance of the text.. This text was developed specifically to be accessible to senior level undergraduates in engineering and computer science, and includes supporting exercises to reinforce the lessons of each section. Professor Kelly adapts principles and techniques from the fields of mathematics, physics, and numerical methods to present a consistent framework in a notation that facilita

As a professor at the Robotics Institute, he teaches mobile robotics at the graduate and undergraduate levels, conducting research in robot simulation, modeling, controls, position estimation, motion planning and human interfaces. About the Author Alonzo Kelly holds undergraduate degrees in aerospace engineering and computer science, and both undergraduate and graduate degrees in robotics. Dr Kelly worked in the aerospace industry for ten years before returning to academia.
"Very good 'all-in-one' mobile robotics book" according to Reinhard Gerndt. The book covers all relevant (high-level) aspects of (wheeled) mobile robotics. It follows a very thorough approach with a focus on the underlying math. It should be especially suitable for those searching for a deep insight and sound base to work in the field of robotics. I consider 'Mobile Robotics' a very good book for readers with some mathematical background. Furthermore, some intrinsic motivation may be required, since the book targets a very steep learning curve.I will use it as textbook for my computer science graduate class on robotics, but will try to smoothen some of the 'hard edges'.. "Great work from a renowned mobile robotics expert" according to Tian X.. Comprehensive discussion of core concepts of modern mobile robotics, including mathematics fundamentals (can't do robotics without serious math!), state estimation, control, perception, motion planning and localization and mapping. Great work from a renowned mobile robotics expert.. "Five Stars" according to Ruben Garrido. Interesting book. Covers most of the subject on control of mobile robots. I will use it in a course.
