This course develops your capabilities in Advanced Robotics. You will build on prior knowledge of Automatic Control systems and examine the design of robotic systems. Topics which will be covered include, (but are not limited to):

Coordinate frame transformations, kinematic analysis of robot design, formulation of matrices to develop robot arm transforms, extraction of analytic joint angle solution equations from both forward and inverse kinematic matrices; planning trajectories in joint space to accomplish a task in global space, robotic vision, and offline programming.
