Robotics Models Using LEGO WeDo 2.0

You'll learn the basics behind different mechanisms and principals required to build walking robots. Simultaneously, make your model “come to life” by incorporating powerful yet simple programming techniques. For every model, go through all the phases to explore each robot’s functionality, solve problems using creativity, identify issues, and propose solutions. 

The authors's expertise working in education, mathematics, programming, electronic, and robotics came together to produce this book. The methodology used is designed to help you discover new knowledge, that has been used historically in science. It relies on observation, measurement, experimentation and formulation, analysis, and modification of hypotheses. All the activities you'll take on follow these phases of designing, building, programming, testing, and finally documenting and sharing.  

With Robotics Models Using LEGO WeDo 2.0 you’ll create solutions to specific, tangible problems while building fun and engaging LEGO models and learning to program them to accomplish basic tasks.

What You'll Learn
