Programming Guide for ROBOTIS DREAM with R+Block, R+Task and Python
This book uses a unique approach in developing the same 8 ROBOTIS DREAM II robotics projects in three ways (R+BLOCK, R+TASK and Python+TASK) on Chromebooks:1. R+BLOCK uses a Graphical Block Programming IDE suitable for young beginning programmers, and it accesses the robot's actuators and sensors directly from the Chromebook at runtime.2. R+TASK uses a Menu-driven IDE which lets the user choose various commands to interact with the robot's actuators and sensors, via a compiled program which operates on the robot's Controller CM-150/151 at runtime. 3. The Python IDE uses the Chromebook Linux Virtual Environment to develop Standard Python programs via a "helper" module containing Utility Functions that have a one-to-one match with the R+BLOCK commands. This feature is designed to help R+BLOCK programmers transition to Python usage.This book has 4 chapters:? Chapter 1 presents an overview of the DREAM II hardware and software capabilities, and its relationship with the Chromebook environment. The Sense-Think-Act (STA) paradigm used in developing the contents of this book is also described in this chapter.? Chapter 2 is written for beginners who want to learn Block Programming. It will guide the reader from R+BLOCK Programming Basics (Sequence, Function, Condition, Loop, Remote-Control and Autonomous-Behavior) to a Structured Approach for Project Analysis and Solution based on the STA Paradigm.? Chapter 3 is written as an independent path for beginners who want to learn TASK Programming instead. It will also guide the reader from R+TASK Programming Basics (Sequence, Loop, Function, Condition, Remote-Control and Autonomous-Behavior) to a Structured Approach for Project Analysis and Solution based on the STA Paradigm.? Chapter 4 starts as a guide for using the Module "CNT_Block.py" as a black box to redevelop in Python the solutions to the same 8 projects demonstrated in Chapters 2 and 3. Chapter 4 ends with a closer look at the linkages between Module "CNT_Block.py" and its companion TASK code "CNT_Block.tskx/tsk3" to provide the reader with a more expansive "Robotics Programming" outlook beyond the Chromebook and DREAM systems.
Robotics Applications Programming with ROBOTIS DREAM Systems
This book is designed to bring an advanced reader, already familiar with the ROBOTIS DREAM II robotics kit, to higher levels of applications programming by using the "hidden" SMART DEVICE features of the ROBOTIS TASK tool allowing the robot's controller CM-150 to collaborate with the R+m.PLAY700 Mobile App, and also by applying the Edbot® Dream Pro software tool to work with SCRATCH 2/3 and Python. The Edbot Dream tool is particularly interesting as it allows multiple robots control from a single SCRATCH or Python program.Chapter 1 shows how to use the "hidden" SMART DEVICE features of the TASK tool to access various mobile device services such as how to display text and graphics, to use the touch areas, to perform text-to-speech and speech recognition tasks, to access multimedia devices such as musical instruments, video players and video cameras. Chapter 1 also shows how to use TASK and BlueTooth communications to achieve Master/Slave control of two CM-150 controllers.Chapter 2 describes the software capabilities of the EDBOT DREAM PRO package and shows how to use SCRATCH 2/3 and Python with the DREAM II School Set. Applications using the PyGame, Threading, OpenCV-Python and NumPy modules are also showcased. This book also provides appropriate source codes and tutorial videos (via YouTube®) to illustrate the presented concepts.

Programming Guide for ROBOTIS MINI
The MINI? programmable humanoid robotic kit was released by ROBOTIS® in 2014. It comes with a free Mobile App called MINI that allows beginner users to operate the MINI through its pre-programmed motions. But the potential use for this kit in educational robotics is largely untapped due to lack of information and practicum sources for users to develop their own projects and to help them learn more about humanoid robotics programming. This book is designed with the "Spiral Teaching" approach for developing MINI projects using 2 main software tools:1.ROBOTIS tools TASK, MOTION and R+m.PLAY700.2.EDBOT? to allow the use of standard development environments such as SCRATCH 2 and PYTHON.This approach allows MINI users to assess the capabilities and constraints of these tools in the development of their existing or potential project ideas.This book has 8 Chapters:Chapter 1 provides a systemic view of the MINI kit from its hardware components and software tools. Chapter 2 provides pre-assembly and post-assembly tips for the MINI kit. Chapter 3 focuses on the use of the ROBOTIS MANAGER tool.Chapter 4 provides MOTION foundational concepts such as KEY-FRAME, TIME-LINE and MOTION-UNIT as well as how-to techniques to use the ROBOTIS MOTION tool. Chapter 5 is a review of the features provided in the MINI App. Chapter 6 provides the foundational knowledge in computer programming structures and techniques with the ROBOTIS TASK tool. Chapter 7 illustrates the use of the R+m.PLAY700 App to access Smart Device features in a TASK program which allow the MINI's Controller to access Multimedia Services from mobile devices. Selected features are demonstrated: Touch Areas, Text Displays, Instruments Play, Text-to-Speech, Speech Recognition and Color Tracking with Mobile Video Camera.Chapter 8 assumes the reader to have some programming experiences in using SCRATCH 2 and PYTHON. It demonstrates the use of EDBOT to control two MINI robots from a single SCRATCH 2 or PYTHON program. It showcases Remote/Autonomous/Mixed Control applications using SCRATCH "Multi-Sprite" and "Broadcast-Message" features and demonstrates the use of the "Threading" and "OpenCV" modules in PYTHON applications.
