This book takes you through various concepts and each chapter has a project that can be performed by you. It covers multiple topics, including sensor data acquisition and pushing it to the cloud to control devices over the Internet, as well as topics ranging from image processing to both autonomous and manual robotics.
In every chapter, the book first covers some theoretical aspects of the topic, which include some small chunks of code and a minimal hardware setup. The rest of the chapter is dedicated to the practical aspects of the project.
The projects discussed in this book wherever possible require only minimal hardware, and the projects in each chapter are included to make sure that you understand the basics.
