How to Explain Robotics to a Grown-Up
Ruth Spiro
A young Black robotics enthusiast explains robotics to their mother, who uses a wheelchair, and encourages readers to explain the subject to grown-ups in their own lives. Speech-bubble dialogue and cartoon-like illustrations introduce different kinds of robots, including machines that explore space, pack boxes, or vacuum floors. The book then focuses on three essential robotic capacities: sensing information, computing or analyzing it to decide what to do, and acting physically. A glossary and brief information about sensory technology used in robots appear at the end.
