Course Objectives		An exploration of robot technologies. 1.To provide information on robots, their components and applications, 2.To provide mechanical design of robots and give an ability to solve kinematic calculations, 3.To give an ability to design the main control architecture, localization, mapping, path planning and vision algorithms of a robot system.
Course Description		An exploration of robot technologies and an introduction to the problems and techniques of robotics from the perspective of a computer engineer. Introduces different types, components and applications of robots. Studies mechanical designs and different sensors. Presents control architectures of robots, localization, mapping, path planning and robot vision algorithms.
Course Outcomes		Students who pass the course will be able to: 1.Have a broad perspective in robot types, components and applications, 2.Determine the most appropriate robot type for a real-world problem, 3.Solve kinematic calculations of mobile robots, 4.Determine and implement the main control architecture of a robot system, 5.Determine and implement the most appropriate localization, mapping, path planning and vision methods, 6.Add high level planning and learning capabilities to robots, and 7.Design the required components for a multirobot system
Pre-requisite(s)		C++ programming, basic linear algebra, vector maths, geometry, calculus.
