Orbitus Robotics learning library
Begin with illustrated read-aloud adventures, grow through four youth maker volumes, then open the implementation-level books behind R.O.B.'s arms, Apple-platform controls, perception, and AI boundaries.
Complete digital collection
The Complete Builder's Field Manual unifies the eight numbered volumes into one digital reference at a price far below buying every volume separately.
An illustrated reference covering mechanics, circuits, firmware, controllers, perception, privacy, AMBER arms, spatial interfaces, AI boundaries, verification, public operation, and the open evidence queue.

Every edition includes a validated EPUB, cover, sample, metadata, rights, and pricing, with Orbitus human review before release.
Editorial, youth safety, technical claims, photograph rights, privacy, trademark use, and accessibility are reviewed before publication.
The EPUB 3 editions include searchable text, image descriptions, and navigation. Each update passes structural and automated accessibility checks, with a separate record for device and assistive-technology review.
Every cover, title, and purchase button above now connects directly to its corresponding Apple Books product page.
Physical editions
The existing print editions use 8.5×11-inch color interiors and matte paperback covers. On September 22, the latest proofs for all eight technical volumes, the Complete Builder’s Field Manual, and ROB and the Lost Yellow Ball were verified and approved. IngramSpark shows all ten as available for publisher orders, with September 25 publication and on-sale dates. Distribution is enabled for seven titles. IngramSpark currently restricts distribution for Mission Control, Dual-Arm Robotics, and Engineering ROBControllerVision; the portal does not give a specific reason. Availability at individual retailers remains unverified.
New paperback editions submitted September 22: ROB’s Little Helper Library collects all ten preschool stories in one $12 book, and ten illustrated coloring books are priced at $9.99 each (U.S. list prices). On October 7, the collected storybook and ROB Shares the Shiny Star: Illustrated Coloring Book passed proof review and became available for publisher orders. Distribution is enabled for the collected storybook. IngramSpark currently restricts distribution for the Shiny Star coloring edition without giving a title-specific reason. The other nine coloring editions had their covers rebuilt with higher-resolution artwork and resubmitted on October 7. Their accepted interiors were retained. IngramSpark is processing those revisions and expects updated digital proofs in 3–5 days; those proofs have not yet been approved. Retail availability for these new editions remains unverified.
Start with one or two bound copies of the picture story and youth volumes. Check dark pages, small labels, gutter clearance, and classroom handling before ordering more.
Each revised interior has a matching wrap cover sized from its IngramSpark template. Print checks cover color, ink coverage, text, image resolution, bleed, and the barcode.
The revisions retain the existing IngramSpark title records and print ISBNs. Retail delivery follows the printer’s processing and proof workflow.
