Begin Robotics: Test Drive Robots Using Exciting Simulations – A Free Course
We’ve all heard about them, but how many of us know what makes a robot a robot? And can anyone get a robot to do a particular task? Begin Robotics will introduce you to the basics of robot design through a series of simulations that will have you test driving an Eric – our very own University of Reading mobile robot. If you’d like to find out more, but are worried that … [Read more...]
Embedded Systems – Embodied Agents, Robot Programming in Java for the NXT Mindstorms – A Free Course
Here's a description of Ole's talk from GOTO Aarhus 2012 At the Department of Computer Science, Aarhus University we have used the Lego Mindstorms NXT Robotics set to teach a master course in embedded Java programming like simple regulation systems and robotics programming like flocks of robots building a map of an unknown environment. The Lego sensors and actuators … [Read more...]
Visual Navigation for Flying Robots – A Free Course
In recent years, flying robots such as autonomous quadrocopters have gained increased interest in robotics and computer vision research. For navigating safely, these robots need the ability to localize themselves autonomously using their onboard sensors. Potential applications of such systems include the automatic 3D reconstruction of buildings, inspection and simple … [Read more...]
