Raspberry Pi for Secret Agents

By Matthew Poole / 2016 / 312 pages

We'll help you set up Raspberry Pi Zero, Raspberry Pi 2 and Raspberry Pi 3 and guide you through a number of pranks and secret agent technologies that are very unclear and embrace harm. You will learn how to configure your operating system for maximum harm and start exploring audio, video or Wi-Fi technologies. We'll show you how to record, listen to, or talk to people from a distance and how to set up your phone network. Next, you'll connect your webcam and set up a motion detector with the alarm and see which other computers are on your Wi-Fi network. Once the technology is mastered, we will combine it with a battery pack and GPS for the off-road spy kit.

Raspberry Pi Robotics Essentials

By Richard Grimmett / 2015 / 158 pages

This book is a fast-paced guide that will show you how to use Raspberry Pi technology to build a biped robot that can interact with its environment. We begin by explaining the basics of getting and running your Raspberry Pi, ready for installation on your biped system. Next, you'll be introduced to the art of creating a biped platform mechanism. You will then learn to develop a vision system for your robot, as well as a way through which you can control and monitor it. By the end of this book, you will have learned enough to build a complex robot that can walk, transform, find its way, and -see- its environment.

Short-Circuits in AC and DC Systems: ANSI, IEEE, and IEC Standards (Power Systems Handbook Book 1)

By J. C. Das / 2017 / 746 pages

This book provides an understanding of the nature of short-circuit currents, current outage theories, types of circuit breakers, calculations according to ANSI / IEEE and IEC standards, the theoretical and practical basis of short-circuit current sources, and the classification structure of switching devices. The book aims to explain the nature of short-circuit currents, asymmetric components of asymmetric errors, and matrix methods of solutions, which are always used on digital computers. It includes innovations, worked examples, case studies, and solved problems.

The Art of Electronics

By Paul Horowitz and Winfield Hill / 2015 / 132 pages

Finally, here's the third fully revised and updated version of the highly successful The Art of Electronics. It is widely accepted that it is the best authoritative official book on electronic circuit design. In addition to new or improved coverage of many topics, the third edition includes 90 screenshots of oscillations showing the behavior of work circles, and dozens of graphs that provide very useful measured data of the type that is buried or deleted in datasheets, but you need when designing circles, and 80 tables (lists about 1650 active components), allowing intelligent selection of circuit components by listing the basic characteristics (specific and specific) of the available parts. The new Art of Electronics retains an informal and accessible feel that has helped make previous versions very successful and popular. It is an indispensable reference and gold standard for anyone, student or researcher, professional or amateur, working with electronic circuits.

The Globotics Upheaval: Globalization, Robotics, and the Future of Work

By Richard Baldwin / 2019 / 302 pages

The roots of inequality, unemployment and popularity are rooted in radical changes in the global economy. Digital technology allows talented foreigners to connect remotely in our workplaces and compete for professional services and jobs. Simultaneous machine translation breaks down language barriers, so the ranks of these -remote immigrants- will soon include every educated person in the world. Computational power resolves the human monopoly of thinking, enabling AI-trained computers to compete for many white-collar jobs. The combination of globalization and robotics creates global turmoil and threatens the very foundations of a liberal welfare state.
