PRODUCT DETAILS:



Robotics: Smart Machines



Robotics is a vast, thrilling, and sometimes overwhelming interdisciplinary field involving physics, engineering, and computer science. This kit gives kids a simple, fun, and customizable introduction to robotics that lets them build eight motorized machines controlled by programs and an ultrasound sensor. Kids code the programs using an easy, visual programming app on a tablet or smartphone, which connects to the robot models via a wireless Bluetooth connection. The ultrasonic sensor works on the same principle as sonar. It sends out sound waves, which bounce off objects.



The sensor interprets the echoes returning to it, and from this detects objects in the path of the sensor. Using the app interface, you can program the robots you build to behave based on the feedback coming from the ultrasound sensor. Build a bipedal robot that walks forward on two legs and pivots to avoid obstacles in its path. An awesome beetle robot moves backwards or forwards in response to an obstacle, and opens and closes its pincers. Construct a funny crocodile model that wags its tail if no object is in sight, but then opens its giant jaws when an object approaches. Using an additional smartphone and tablet, you can even hack together a cute little spy bot that roams around and streams video back to the tablet screen. A cool tiltrotor aircraft model simulates vertical takeoff and landing by rotating its propeller blades 90 degrees. You can also assemble other fun robots including a robo dog and robotosaurus.



After you have learned how the technology works, you can build and program your own robots using the kit’s 230 building pieces. A full-color, 64-page step-by-step illustrated manual helps kids assemble all of the models and teaches them about robotics in the real world. The visual programming language allows you to command the robots’ motors to move at different times, different power levels, in different directions, and in response to the data from the sensor. You can also add simple sounds to your programs. Requires a tablet or smartphone running iOS or Android. Please check the app stores for compatibility and device requirements.

Enjoyed this book as one whom can relate to the healthcare maze. The "tip boxes" are really accurate and helpful for anyone to navigate the system and take ownership for the most desirable direction.

I Am My Brother's Keeper.
Format: Paperback
I Am My Brother's Keeper. I had met Gary Rhule , a Jamaican American, because we are both Connecticut authors and belong to CAPA , Connecticut Author's and Publishers Association. I had offered to read and review his book about essential survival skills for recovery from mental illness , because like Dr. Rhule, I also work in a hospital with patients who have neurological and or psychiatric brain disorders. However , I found the book to cover more than just that. It deals with the stigma of mental illness, the choices a sibling and care giver have to choose, and the decision to care for a brother who has mental illness. The book also juxtaposes Gary Rhule's work as an emergency room physician with the work of being a caregiver for a sibling , saving lives and enabling people in both situations. But , unlike the gloomy feeling one might expect from a book dealing with mental illness, this book is exciting , full of interesting stories, and loaded with life's lessons that may be learned from an ER doctor. From the moment I read the first paragraph I was captivated and knew this was a well written book. You can't make this stuff up. With script like " We are glad you came." She said again. " Sometimes when we call families , they do not come . You know , they have lives too". You can say Gary has found his "calling" when he decided to take up the challenge of caring for his sibling. However , the above sentence could apply to anyone caring for a family member , for instance a child with a developmental disorder or a parent who has developed dementia. From the perspective of working in an emergency room , the action competes with anything I have seen on TV. " All the bones and tissues of the ankle and foot were displayed for the entire world to see. Frank Netter , the medical illustrator, could have drawn the ankles anatomy from this wide open view. Surprisingly , there was little blood despite the magnitude of the injury..... I shook my head in disbelief as I imagined his falling , and hearing the snap and loud crack as he fell off the ladder." How do you deal with pain , both physical and emotional ? Read the book and find out. Dr Rhule hopes that by reading his story , others will band together and take up the responsibility of understanding how to cope and deal with mental illness in a family member. Jason is author of Being In Control : Natural Solutions for ADHD, Dyslexia and Test Anxiety".

Brought the adventure to life
Format: Paperback
I didn’t expect to feel so pulled into these ancient stories, but this translation made the adventures and struggles feel real and vivid. The language is modern enough to understand easily but keeps the weight and drama of Homer’s world. It’s the kind of book that makes you appreciate why these stories have lasted so long, and it’s been a rewarding read I’m glad I added to my shelf.
