Modern Robotics
Modern Robotics by Kevin M. Lynch, published by Cambridge University Press on May 25, 2017, is a comprehensive introduction to the field of robotics. This 528-page book presents a unified perspective on the mechanics, planning, and control of robots, making it suitable for both self-learners and academic courses. It assumes a foundational knowledge of freshman-level physics, ordinary differential equations, linear algebra, and some computing background, allowing readers to engage with the material effectively.
Readers will find that Modern Robotics emphasizes state-of-the-art, screw-theoretic techniques that intuitively capture the physical characteristics of robots. The book includes numerous exercises at the end of each chapter to reinforce learning, along with accompanying software designed to enhance understanding of the concepts presented. Additionally, video lectures are provided to enrich the classroom experience, making this edition a valuable resource for those interested in technology, engineering, and computer science.
Official synopsis Publisher
This introduction to robotics offers a distinct and unified perspective of the mechanics, planning and control of robots. Ideal for self-learning, or for courses, as it assumes only freshman-level physics, ordinary differential equations, linear algebra and a little bit of computing background. Modern Robotics presents the state-of-the-art, screw-theoretic techniques capturing the most salient physical features of a robot in an intuitive geometrical way. With numerous exercises at the end of each chapter, accompanying software written to reinforce the concepts in the book and video lectures aimed at changing the classroom experience, this is the go-to textbook for learning about this fascinating subject.
