New Approaches in Automation and Robotics
Edited by Harald Aschemann, ISBN 978-3-902613-26-4, Hard cover, 392 pages, Publisher: I-Tech Education and Publishing, Published: May 01, 2008 under CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 license, in subject Robotics and Automation
The book New Approaches in Automation and Robotics offers in 22 chapters a collection of recent developments in automation, robotics as well as control theory. It is dedicated to researchers in science and industry, students, and practicing engineers, who wish to update and enhance their knowledge on modern methods and innovative applications. The authors and editor of this book wish to motivate people, especially under-graduate students, to get involved with the interesting field of robotics and mechatronics. We hope that the ideas and concepts presented in this book are useful for your own work and could contribute to problem solving in similar applications as well. It is clear, however, that the wide area of automation and robotics can only be highlighted at several spots but not completely covered by a single book.
