It’s finally here… the book with a title that’s almost longer than the book itself: “10 Cool LEGO Mindstorms Ultimate Builders Projects: Amazing Projects You Can Build in Under an Hour“.
And if you squint really hard, you can almost make out my name on the cover.
The book features ten interesting projects from genuine Mindstorms fanatics, including robots by Dr. C.S. Soh, whose skill at designing pneumatic LEGO machines is mind-boggling.
Writing for the book was enjoyable but exhausting — many pots of coffee were sacrificed in the making of those robots. For my contribution, I focused on the novice builder and designed four robots: three vehicles and a hopping, leggy thing (two of them are on the front cover).
My hope is that several thousand people will buy this book and build the robots, at which point, the legions of hopping, leggy things will rise up and CONQUER THE WORLD!!
Or maybe they’ll just hop around a bit. Either way would be cool.
