Overview of this book

There has been a rapid rise in the use of JavaScript in recent times in a variety of applications, and JavaScript robotics has seen a rise in popularity too. Johnny-Five is a framework that gives NodeBots a consistent API and platform across several hardware systems. This book walks you through basic robotics projects including the physical hardware builds and the JavaScript code for them. You'll delve into the concepts of Johnny-Five and JS robotics. You'll learn about various components such as Digital GPIO pins, PWM output pins, Sensors, servos, and motors to be used with Johnny-Five along with some advanced components such as I2C, and SPI. You will learn to connect your Johnny-Five robots to internet services and other NodeBots to form networks. By the end of this book, you will have explored the benefits of the Johnny-Five framework and the many devices it unlocks.

What you'll need for this chapter


You'll need your microcontroller—I highly recommend the Arduino Uno for this chapter because of its compatibility. You'll also need a USB cable, a breadboard, some breadboarding wires, and the LCD you used in Chapter 4, Using Specialized Output Devices. You'll also need three standard servos. If possible, the servos should be of the same brand and make—this will help with our project.
