Academics

• Graduate Programs
• Undergraduate Programs
• Courses
  • ME/CS/EE 133 ab: Robotics
    • 9 units (3-2-4)
    • first, second terms
    • Prerequisites: ME/CS/EE 129, or Python programming experience, evidenced to instructor
    • Course Description: The course develops the core concepts of robotics. The first quarter focuses on classical robotic manipulation, including topics in rigid body kinematics and dynamics. It develops planar and 3D kinematic formulations and algorithms for forward and inverse computations, Jacobians, and manipulability. The second quarter transitions to planning, navigation, and perception. Topics include A* and D* graph search, roadmap, sample-based RRT and EST planning, as well as localization and mapping algorithms, to achieve collision-free motions.
    • Course Work: transitions from homework and programming assignments to more open-ended team-based projects
    • Instructor: Niemeyer
• Course Schedule
• Wilts Prize
• Med/EE Track
