In Chapters 5-8, Ibrahim turns his focus to control applications featuring Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, which offer exciting possibilities for engineering looking to add to wireless control and connectivity to a wide variety of designs, from robots to home control systems. Anticipating that readers will have various needs and project goals, Ibrahim covers a wide range of critical topics, including UDP vs TCP, mobile phone apps, Python Bluetooth library, and more.
 
Motor Control’s value is not just in the quality of its straightforward projects and easy-to-understand diagrams and schematics. Ibrahim also provides helpful useful tips and tricks for programming the Arduino and Raspberry Pi. For instance, when presenting a Raspberry Pi Python programming listing for a motor speed control project, Ibrahim recommends: “Send leading zeroes on the input line before the start bit. This is often done when using microcontroller-based systems that must send 8 bits at a time.”
