At first I thought this was just another link to a ripped-off book PDF, but not
only is it offered freely by the author, there are
*tons* of links and free info to be found here!
Most of it is way over my head, but if you're so inclined there is C++ code,
articles on Abusing Roomba Robots, Motion Planning,
and topics such as "Minimum wheel-rotation paths for differential-drive mobile
robots". Some of the titles alone give me some new
ideas.
Grab a big cup of coffee and browse away!
Thank you very much for posting this link, Arie!
