A highly recommended addition to robotic studies reference
Algorithms control the computational processes relating the indispensable sensors and actuators required for robot navigation and environmental perception. A clear and thorough understanding of how algorithms work is fundamentally essential for developing efficient and usable robots. Capably edited by Bruce Randall Donald, Kevin Lynch, and Daniela Rus, Algorithmic And Computational Robotics: New Directions is drawn from an interdisciplinary group of scientists who contributed their findings, commentaries, and analysis to the Fourth Workshop on the Algorithmic Foundation of Robotics (WAFR 2000). This superbly presented text covers such issues as geometric algorithms, minimalist and underactuated robotics, robot controllability, manufacturing and assembly, holonomic and nonholonomic motion planning, manipulation planning, sensor-based planning, task-level planning, grasping, navigation, biometrics, medical robots, self-assembly, modular and reconfigurable robots, and distributed manipulation. Algorithmic And Computational Robotics is an impressive and highly recommended addition to robotic studies reference collections and reading lists.
