This book primarily focuses on using the Raspberry Pi and Java for
robotics projects and
Internet of Things (IoT) projects. A secondary focus is remote code development using
Apache NetBeans. I’ve found the combination of the Raspberry Pi, Java, and NetBeans to be a very powerful and productive means of developing robotics projects. I believe the combination applies to IoT projects as well. In this chapter, I’ll discuss the
motivation, in the context of robotics and IoT
projects, for
