Synthesis Lectures on Control and Mechatronics Mobile Robotics for Multidisciplinary Study - Carolotta Berry Kartoniert (TB)

This lecture provides an introduction to the field of mobile robotics and the intersection between multiple robotics-related disciplines including electrical mechanical computer software engineering and computer science. It is intended for an upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate students interested in mobile robotics and artificial intelligence with some experience in object-oriented programming and controls. Focus areas will include robotics history hardware control and software. Specific topics include robot components effectors and actuators locomotion kinematics sensor s feedback control control architectures representation navigation localization and mapping. The end of each chapter includes review questions as well as exercises to provide applications for the concepts as well as opportunities for further study.Table of Contents: Introduction Hardware Control Software
