Hi!

Im a programmer and I would like to start learning about embeeded
systems and robotics. i 've been programming in java and c for some
years, but now i would like to know more about hardware and how to
program more lowlevel(using c or such)..and then learn more about
robotics and one day hopefully build one:) So, my question is where do I
start? Any good books to recommend?

Thanks!

Re: Learning path


Microcontrollers are very useful in the robotics world. Not only can
you program them in C, but using them will allow you to slowly become
more and more comfortable with electronics. I would recommend the
Smiley Micros book (http://www.smileymicros.com/ ) as a good place to
begin with microcontrollers.
