En este libro se intentan plasmar todas las facetas que integra el ecosistema Arduino, desde la presentación del hardware en el que se basa la tarjeta hasta las herramientas de generación del código integradas en el entorno de desarrollo. Conjuntamente con la presentacion de los contenidos de cada seccion, el libro muestra multitud de ejemplos de diseño que exponen de forma clara toda la potencia y alcance de esta tecnologia. Se presenta toda la informacion necesaria para desarrollar aplicaciones complejas a partir de los bloques de diseño basicos. El lector puede descargar el entorno de desarrollo desde la pagina web del equipo Arduino (http://arduino.cc/) para compilar los ejemplos expuestos en el texto. Con todo ello el lector podra construir sus propios sistemas basados en Arduino y convertir sus ideas en dispositivos funcionales, ya sea con un objetivo profesional, educacional o de entretenimiento.

By the mid-1980s researchers from artificial intelligence, computer science, brain and cognitive science, and psychology realized that the idea of computers as intelligent machines was inappropriate. The brain does not run "programs"; it does something entirely different. But what? Evolutionary theory says that the brain has evolved not to do mathematical proofs but to control our behavior, to ensure our survival. Researchers now agree that intelligence always manifests itself in behavior -- thus it is behavior that we must understand. An exciting new field has grown around the study of behavior-based intelligence, also known as embodied cognitive science, "new AI," and "behavior-based AI."This book provides a systematic introduction to this new way of thinking. After discussing concepts and approaches such as subsumption architecture, Braitenberg vehicles, evolutionary robotics, artificial life, self-organization, and learning, the authors derive a set of principles and a coherent framework for the study of naturally and artificially intelligent systems, or autonomous agents. This framework is based on a synthetic methodology whose goal is understanding by designing and building.The book includes all the background material required to understand the principles underlying intelligence, as well as enough detailed information on intelligent robotics and simulated agents so readers can begin experiments and projects on their own. The reader is guided through a series of case studies that illustrate the design principles of embodied cognitive science.

Beginning Android Games, Second Edition offers everything you need to join the ranks of successful Android game developers, including Android tablet game app development considerations. You''ll start with game design fundamentals and programming basics, and then progress toward creating your own basic game engine and playable game apps that work on Android and earlier version compliant smartphones and now tablets. This will give you everything you need to branch out and write your own Android games.The potential user base and the wide array of available high-performance devices makes Android an attractive target for aspiring game developers.
