Cookbook For Mobile Robotic Platform Control 

Controlling Robots using Blynk, Virtuino, Cayenne, Thingspeak, Firebase Key features The book provides gradual pace of basics to advanced interfacing and programming with Ti launch pad for Io T applications. It provides a unique style for Io T applications with program codes. It discusses various applications where the Internet of Things plays an important role, and considers a number of different independent prototypes for various mobile robotics platform control methods. The control of robot with different mobile apps like Blynk, Virtuino, Cayenne, Thingspeak, Firebase are included for vast coverage of scope. Step by step programming, to get started with Ti launch Pad Case studies to provide solution to real time problems The case studies and programming in book are tested on real hardware during handling the industrial and student projects. Description This book provides a platform to the readers, where they can understand the applications of ‘Internet of Things’ to control the robotic platform. It covers the basic knowledge of the mobile apps with their designing steps and programming. The objective of the book is to discuss various applications of robotic platform where ‘Internet of things’ can play an important role. This book comprises of total seventeen chapters for designing different independent prototypes for the various control methods. It covers introduction to Io T and basic components to design a robotic platform. The system demonstration is done with the help of Ti Launch Pad and other interfacing devices. The control of robot with different mobile apps like Blynk, Virtuino, Cayenne, Thingspeak, Firebase are included for vast coverage of scope.It would be beneficial for the people who want to get started with hardware based robotic prototypes with Io T. This book is entirely based on the practical experience of the authors while undergoing projects with the students and industries.What will you learn Interfacing of Ti launch Pad and Node MCU with Input/Output Devices Serial Communication between Ti Launch Pad and Node MCU Robot Control Using the Blynk, Virtuino App Environment Monitoring Robot with BLYNK App Sensory Data Acquisition Robot Using a Thing Speak Server Robot Control with Cayenne App, Local Server and Node MCU, Firebase Server Who this book is for Students pursuing BE/BSc/ME/MSc/BTech/MTech in Computer Science, Electronics, Electrical.
