El libro que tiene ahora en sus manos posee contenidos y caraterísticas únicas: encierra historias narradas por estudiantes de secundaria como parte de un proyecto de su clase de español. Habría que buscar a 100 estudiantes latinos quienes, a pesar de los enormes problemas de los jóvenes de hoy, alcanzaron la meta de graduarse de “high school” y quedar fuera de las terribles estadísticas de deserción entre los hispanos. Este libro logra adentrarse en la página del diario vivir de un adolescente, quizá su hermano, su primo, su vecino, su hijo, y se convertirá seguramente en una gran fuente de inspiración para toda la población latina.

An introduction to the LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor Kit through seven engaging projects. With its amazing assortment of bricks, motors, and smart sensors, the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Robot Inventor set opens the door to a physical-meets-digital world. The LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor Activity Book expands that world into an entire universe of incredibly fun, uniquely interactive robotic creations! Using the Robot Inventor set and a device that can run the companion app, you’ll learn how to build bots beyond your imagination—from a magical monster that gobbles up paper and answers written questions, to a remote-controlled transformer car that you can drive, steer, and shape-shift into a walking humanoid robot at the press of a button. Author and MINDSTORMS master Daniele Benedettelli, a robotics expert, takes a project-based approach as he leads you through an increasingly sophisticated collection of his most captivating robot models, chapter by chapter. Each project features illustrated step-by-step building instructions, as well as detailed explanations on programming your robots through the MINDSTORMS App—no coding experience required. As you build and program an adorable pet turtle, an electric guitar that lets you shred out solos, a fully functional, whiz-bang pinball machine and more, you’ll discover dozens of cool building and programming techniques to apply to your own LEGO creations, from working with gears and motors, to smoothing out sensor measurement errors, storing data in variables and lists, and beyond. By the end of this book, you’ll have all the tools, talent and inspiration you need to invent your own LEGO MINDSTORMS robots.

This book teaches anyone interested how to build LEGO MINDSTORMS robots. The author starts with an easy robot and gets to more detail in the succeeding six robots built in the book. The robots he presents are award winning robots, so he is giving away his secrets. The author also teaches how to program the robots. If you are not a programmer, then you can use the code provided. He tells you what equipment you need and how to get it inexpensively. So everything is discussed that you will need to create these robots or modify his designs to create your own. You truly experience the technology in action as you create your robots.

Bienvenido querido lector, bienvenido a la saga "Las batallas por la supervivencia del cosmos" y, en concreto, al primer episodio titulado "El comienzo del inicio" que se subdividira en cuatro libros. Para comenzar, veremos el primer tomo titulado "El planeta de Dronag y su primer poder." Este primer libro contiene las aventuras de Dronag, quien nacio con el unico proposito de cancelar el ciclo cosmico o, mejor dicho, destruir a todo el cosmos. Asi que comenzaremos con el nacimiento de este ser destructivo. La historia se desarrollara principalmente en su planeta; aunque hay cuatro seres que narran los sucesos que ocurren en otro universo pero que son importantes en el transcurso de la accion. Otros personajes importantes son las cadetes, quienes lucharan para convertirse en la siguiente princesa guerrera; los integrantes del clan ollac, el gigante Sot-ord, la sombra del dia y la de la oscuridad, asi como el rey azul. Todos ellos tienen distintas historias que influiran en la existencia de Dronag de una u otra forma. Bienvenido querido lector a este primer libro en donde encontrara fabulosas aventuras con inesperados sucesos, los cuales seran narrados en parte por los propios personajes que las vivieron y por otra parte seran narrados por mi mismo.
