Artificial Intelligence for Robotics: Build intelligent robots using ROS 2, Python, OpenCV, and AI/ML techniques for real-world tasks

Synopsis

Learn how to apply artificial intelligence, engineering, and machine learning to create smart robots capable of interacting with their environment, engaging with users, making decisions, and navigating autonomouslyKey FeaturesGain a holistic understanding of robot design, systems engineering, and task analysisImplement AI/ML techniques to detect and manipulate objects and navigate robots using landmarksIntegrate voice and natural language interactions to create a digital assistant and artificial personality for your robotPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookBook DescriptionUnlock the potential of your robots by enhancing their perception with cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques. From neural networks to computer vision, this book equips you with the tools and practical use cases to create truly smart robots. Starting with robotics basics, robot architecture, control systems, and decision-making theory, this book presents systems-engineering methods to design problem-solving robots with single-board computers. You’ll explore object recognition and genetic algorithms to teach your robot to identify and pick up objects, and you'll also harness the power of natural language processing to give your robot a voice. To enhance your robot further, you’ll master neural networks to classify and separate objects and navigate autonomously, before advancing to guiding your robot arms using reinforcement learning and genetic algorithms. The book also covers path planning and goal-oriented programming to prioritize your robot's tasks, showing you how to connect all software using Python and ROS 2 for a seamless experience. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to transform your robot into a helpful assistant with NLP and give it an artificial personality, ready to tackle real-world tasks and even crack jokes.What you will learnGet started with robotics and AI essentialsUnderstand path planning, decision trees, and search algorithms to enhance your robotExplore object recognition using neural networks and supervised learning techniquesEmploy genetic algorithms to enable your robot arm to manipulate objectsTeach your robot to listen using Natural Language Processing through an expert systemProgram your robot in how to avoid obstacles and retrieve objects with machine learning and computer visionApply simulation techniques to give your robot an artificial personalityWho this book is forThis book is for practicing robotics engineers and enthusiasts aiming to advance their skills by applying AI and ML techniques.
