Concise Encyclopedia of Robotics Reviews

Written by S. L. Tanimoto, University of Washington Robotics contains elements of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science. One of the challenges in reading a robotics text or entering the field as a hobbyist is the variety of concepts and terminology one must know. This book, a how things work for the robotics field, provides about 400 brief articles explaining concepts from acoustic proximity sensor to zooming. Some entries are very short; Guidance System, for example, requires only two sentences and refers to other articles. A longer article like Logic Gate is a page and a half long, including a diagram and table. Most topics are technical, but some are philosophical, such as Jungian World Theory. This well-written book is not an introduction to robotics--there is no history article, and no article titled Robot or Robotics--but it is likely to be a useful reference for students and hobbyists. Summing Up: Recommended. Choice 20030901
