Introduction to Autonomous Robots
An open textbook covering computational principles, mechanisms, sensors, actuators, and algorithms for autonomous robots.
What is Introduction to Autonomous Robots?
Introduction to Autonomous Robots is an open textbook that covers the computational principles, mechanisms, sensors, actuators, and algorithms essential for autonomous robotic systems. It serves as an educational resource for understanding the foundational concepts behind robot autonomy, from basic mechanisms to complex decision-making algorithms. The book bridges theoretical concepts with practical applications in robotics.
Students, educators, and practitioners in robotics engineering, computer science, and related fields who need a comprehensive textbook on autonomous robot principles. It's particularly valuable for university courses and self-learners seeking structured knowledge in robotics.
Provides a freely available, academically rigorous open educational resource with MIT Press credibility, covering both theoretical foundations and practical algorithms. Unlike many proprietary textbooks, it offers LaTeX source code for customization and self-compilation while maintaining academic quality through proper citation and peer-reviewed content.
