Pożary i zgliszcza. Powieść na tle powstania styczniowego

Maria Rodziewiczówna

Aleksander Świda to człowiek dumny, hardy i honorowy, acz porywczy. Dla idei i miłości swojego serca jest gotów poświęcić życie. Pewnego dnia zostaje fałszywie oskarżony przez swego sąsiada, Dominika Czaplica, o podpalenie zabudowań sąsiedzkiego majątku. Aleksander na wiele lat znika z okolicy. Tymczasem wybucha powstanie. Rząd Narodowy wzywa Świdę do udziału w walce. W pierwszej chwili Aleksander odmawia, uznając ten zryw za źle przygotowany i groźny dla Polski. Słucha jednak głosu jedynego człowieka, któremu wierzy bezgranicznie: ukochanej kobiety. Angażuje się w walkę. Los ponownie styka go z Czaplicem, który kolaboruje z wrogiem... Pożary i zgliszcza to ciekawa i wciągająca od pierwszego akapitu lektura.

Mastering ROS for Robotics Programming. Design, build, and simulate complex robots using the Robot Operating System - Second Edition

Lentin Joseph, Jonathan Cacace

In this day and age, robotics has been gaining a lot of traction in various industries where consistency and perfection matter. Automation is achieved via robotic applications and various platforms that support robotics. The Robot Operating System (ROS) is a modular software platform to develop generic robotic applications. This book focuses on the most stable release of ROS (Kinetic Kame), discusses advanced concepts, and effectively teaches you programming using ROS.We begin with aninformative overview of the ROS framework, which will give you a clear idea of how ROS works. During the course of this book, you’ll learn to build models of complex robots, and simulate and interface the robot using the ROS MoveIt! motion planning library and ROS navigation stacks. Learn to leverage several ROS packages to embrace your robot models.After covering robot manipulation and navigation, you’ll get to grips with the interfacing I/O boards, sensors, and actuators of ROS. Vision sensors are a key component of robots, and an entire chapter is dedicated to the vision sensor and image elaboration, its interface in ROS and programming. You’ll also understand the hardware interface and simulation of complex robots to ROS and ROS Industrial.At the end of this book, you’ll discover the best practices to follow when programming using ROS.
