Robotics is undergoing a major transformation in scope and dimension. Starting from a predominantly industrial focus, robotics has been rapidly expanding into the challenges of unstructured environments. The ‘Springer Handbook of Robotics’ incorporates these new developments and therefore basically differs from other handbooks of robotics focusing on industrial applications. It presentsa widespread and well-structured coverage from the foundations of robotics, through the consolidated methodologies and technologies, up to the new emergingapplication areas of robotics. The handbook is an ideal resource for roboticsexperts but also for people new to this expanding field such as engineers, medical doctors, computer scientists, designers; edited by two internationally renowned experts. Research and Application-oriented handbook on one of the hottest topics in science and technology. The right book at the right time edited by two internationally renowned experts. Includes all the relevant developments and applications of robotics. Ideal resource not only for experts but also for people new to this growing field such as computer scientists, medical doctors, engineers, etc. Print + eReference. INDICE: Part A Robotics Foundations. Part B Robot Structures. Part C Sensing and Perception. Part D Manipulation and Interfaces. Part E Mobile and Distributed Robotics.
