The author describes the progression of raw signals through conditioning stages, digitization, data storage and presentation. Sections on switches and motors, which cover basic robotics, are also included. All steps are illustrated with handson examples, based on inexpensive hardware. The book is suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in physics and electrical engineering, as well as for hobbyists"-- Provided by publisher ER -
