The course objective is to understand the mechanics and control of mechanical manipulators and mobile robots. This course will cover topics such as kinematics and dynamics of manipulators and mobile robots, trajectory and path planning, control (computed-torque control, neural network), and force control of robots and manipulators. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hoursPrerequisite(s): ME 431.3 or ME 862.3.
