Students are introduced to the fundamentals concepts of mobile robotics, spanning the mechanical, motor, sensory, perceptual, and cognitive layers. Students explore the mechanisms that allow an autonomous mobile robot to move through a real world environment to perform its tasks. Students learn various aspects of mobile robotics, including software and hardware design considerations, related technologies, and algorithmic techniques for locomotion, sensing, localization, and motion planning. Students explore current research literature and problems in mobile robots. Prerequisite: Admission to the Graduate program in Engineering.
