===== ECE4560: Introduction to Robotics and Automation =====

Essential to the programming of automation and autonomy algorithms for typical robotics systems is an understanding of rigid body mechanics and its use for describing robot motion. This course covers the fundamental mathematics of robot modeling and how they translate to algorithms for controlling or manipulating robots. As such, the course involves a mix of mathematical theory and numerical algorithms for describing canonical problems in robotics. The primary emphasis is on (serial chain) manipulators, but a good portion of it applies to mobile robots and other classes of robotic systems. Students who master the course contents will have a strong foundation from which to work on robotics problems.
