Introduction to inverse kinematics

lesson

We will learn about inverse kinematics, that is, how to compute the robot’s joint angles given the desired pose of their end-effector and knowledge about the dimensions of its links. We will also learn about how to generate paths that lead to smooth coordinated motion of the end-effector.

Advanced Joint Control Strategies

lesson

A number of strategies exist to reduce the effect of these coupling torques between the joints, from introducing a gearbox between the motor and the joint, to advanced feedforward strategies.

Introduction to robotics

lesson

We introduce the topic of robotics, the recent history, why we need robots and the future of robots.

Angle-axis representation of rotation in 3D

lesson

The orientation of a body in 3D can also be described by a single rotation about a particular axis in space.

Introduction to 2D geometry

lesson

We learn how to describe the position and orientation of objects on a 2-dimensional plane. We introduce the notion of reference frames as a basis for describing the position of objects in two dimensions.
