Contents of This Book
We cover a wide variety of topics in this book. Here’s what you get:
Chapter 1 introduces the reader to the mysteries of Lego and Arduino with our Drawbot project. It’s a simple project that creates a robot that draws shapes with a pen. It’ll help you delve into the mysteries of controlling Mindstorms motors with an Arduino. We also introduce the Bricktronics Shield, our Arduino add-on that interfaces between Lego and Arduino.
In Chapter 2 we brush up on our Lego skills, learning about the Mindstorms set and compatible product lines like Technic and Power Functions.
Chapter 3 covers the opposite side of the equation: learning about Arduino and their add-on boards, called shields.
