This course teaches students about what it takes to make robots move the way we want them to move. There are three parts to the course. The first part discusses how to represent robot position and motion mathematically. The second part focuses on planning motions. The third part focuses on controlling the robot to achieve motion. In some cases, the planning and control are tied together. Throughout the course, students will use simulations to apply the concepts they are learning.
