Mechanical & Industrial Engrg 697RB - ST- Robotics

This course will cover both fundamental and cutting-edge topics in robotics. We will study the kinematics, dynamics, and autonomous control of various robotic systems (e.g., manipulators, mobile robots, and exoskeletons). The fundamentals will be studied in lectures and robot simulation exercises. State-of-the-art robotics research will be studied through paper reviews and discussion. A final research project will allow you to dive deeper into your choice of a topic covered in this course. Knowledge of 2D kinematics/dynamics, linear algebra, differential equations and prior programming experience is required.
