Andrew Lindsay, Parallax Chief Roboticist, has since rewritten this text and its activities
with three goals in mind. First, to support all activities in the text with carefully written
“how to” instructions. Second, to expose the reader and student to new circuit,
programming, engineering, and robotic concepts in each chapter. Third, to ensure that
the experiments can be performed with a high degree of success using the most up-to-
date Parallax equipment. As of this version, the most up-to-date equipment is the Board
of Education Rev C or the BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board.
Thanks to Dale Kretzer for editorial review, which was incorporated into v1.4. Thanks
