Beschreibung
Design that works! It's what you need if you're building and competing with LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 robotics. You'll find uses for the new light sensors and gyro sensors in navigation, helping you to follow lines and make turns more consistently. Approach collision detection with greater confidence through EV3's ultrasonic sensor. Learn new designs for power attachments.
Winning Design! is about building with LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 for fun, for education, but especially for competition. Author James Trobaugh is an experienced coach and leader in the FIRST LEGO League. In this book, he shares his hard-won knowledge about design principles and techniques that contribute toward success in robotics competitions.
Winning Design! unlocks the secrets of reliable design using LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3. Yoüll learn proven design patterns that you can employ for common tasks such as turning, pushing, and pulling. Yoüll reduce and compensate for variation in performance from battery charge levels and motor calibration differences. Yoüll produce designs that won¿t frustrate you by not working, but that will delight you with their reliable performance in the heat of competition.
Good design is about more than just the hardware. Software counts for a lot, and Winning Design! has you covered. Yoüll find chapters on program design and organization with tips on effective coding and documentation practices. Yoüll learn about master programs and the needed flexibility they provide. There¿s even a section on presenting your robot and software designs to the judges.
Winning Design! is the book you need if you're involved in competitions such as FIRST LEGO League events. Whether coach, parent, or student, yoüll find much in this book to make your design and competition experience fun and memorable, and educational. Don't be without this book if you're leading a team of young people as they build skills toward a future in technology.
What You Will Learn

Build winning robots on a foundation of good chassis design

Reduce variability in robot mechanical movements

Design modular attachments for quick change during competition

Solve navigation problems such as steering, squaring up, and collision detection

Manage software using master programs and other techniques

Power your robot attachments via motors and pneumatics

Über den Autor
James J. Trobaugh is an experienced coach and leader in the FIRST LEGO League. He is author of the acclaimed book Winning Design!, focusing on the physical aspects of LEGO MINDSTORMS robot design. He has been involved with the FIRST LEGO League since 2004 as coach for Team Super Awesome, and as a technical judge at the LEGO World Festival. He is also the FIRST LEGO League Director of the Forsyth Alliance in Forsyth County, Georgia. James started out as a LEGO hobbyist by founding the North Georgia LEGO Train Club in 1998, and has found in LEGO robotics a natural blending of his LEGO hobby and his day job as a software architect. An added bonus is the joy of sharing his love of technology not only with his own children, but with kids in general.
James J. Trobaugh has a degree in Computer Science and has been working as a software architect for 26 years. He lives in the Atlanta, Georgia area with his two children, Ian and Amy.

Zusammenfassung
Children the world over learn about technology through robotics competitions organized around LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3. These competitions represent a large, grass-roots movement supported by enthusiastic volunteers. There are 233,000 participants as of January 2016, and they are divided into some 29,000 teams competing in 1350 events held in 80 countries. Winning Design! is written by a long-time coach and event volunteer as a way to impart his knowledge of successful design patterns, especially of those patterns that are helpful when used in competitive events. No leader or team will want to be without the information in this book and the edge that it potentially gives them in competition.
