A groundbreaking work of scholarship that sheds critical new light on the urban renewal of Paris under Napoleon IIIIn the mid-nineteenth century, Napoleon III and his prefect, Georges-Eugene Haussmann, adapted Paris to the requirements of industrial capitalism, endowing the old city with elegant boulevards, an enhanced water supply, modern sewers, and public greenery.
The Urban Climate aims to summarize analytical studies directed toward physical understanding of the rural-urban differences in the atmospheric boundary layer.
Except from the ForewordThe stated aim of the book series "e;Capturing Intelligence"e; is to publish books on research from all disciplines dealing with and affecting the issue of understanding and reproducing intelligence artificial systems.
The Ultimate Tool for MINDSTORMS(R) ManiacsThe new MINDSTORMS kit has been updated to include a programming brick, USB cable, RJ11-like cables, motors, and sensors.
The ROV Manual: A User Guide for Observation-Class Remotely Operated Vehicles is the first manual to provide a basic "e;"e;How To"e;"e; for using small observation-class ROVs for surveying, inspection and research procedures.
Written by two of Europe's leading robotics experts, this book provides the tools for a unified approach to the modelling of robotic manipulators, whatever their mechanical structure.
Artificial Vision is a rapidly growing discipline, aiming to build computational models of the visual functionalities in humans, as well as machines that emulate them.
A wide-ranging cultural history centered around the concepts of real estate, the family home, and the American dream, and how they evolved over the years, Home Ownership in America: A Socio-Cultural History of Housing in the United States traces narratives around home ownership from the 1920s to today.
Rather than using traditional artificial intelligence techniques, which are ineffective when applied to the complexities of real-world robot navigaiton, Connell describes a methodology of reconstructing intelligent robots with distributed, multiagent control systems.
La obra surge de una búsqueda colectiva de herramientas y métodos de aproximación y comprensión de las dinámicas, patrones y acciones de ocupación y construcción de los asentamientos espontáneos, que se han sucedido en Colombia a través del tiempo y que en los últimos sesenta años, se han intensificado por razones de desplazamiento forzado, violencia y falta de oportunidades en el campo.
Accessible to all readers, including students of secondary school and amateur technology enthusiasts, Robotics, Mechatronics, and Artificial Intelligence simplifies the process of finding basic circuits to perform simple tasks, such as how to control a DC or step motor, and provides instruction on creating moving robotic parts, such as an "e;eye"e; or an "e;ear.
