Robotic Mapping and Trajectory Generation at Coursera Course details
- What you'll learn
- Use basic feedback control techniques for inverse kinematics of (non-)Holonomic mechanisms.
- Apply coordinate transforms to multi-dimensional sensor signals.
- Understand basic probabilistic representations to deal with uncertainty from measurement noise.
- In this second course of the Introduction to Robotics specialization, "Robotic Mapping and Trajectory Generation", you will learn how to perform basic inverse kinematics of (non-)holonomic systems using a feedback control approach
- You will also learn how to process multi-dimensional sensor signals such as laser range scanners for mapping
- Additionally, you will apply the overarching focus of mechanisms and sensors as sources of uncertainty and gain techniques to how to model and control them
- It is recommended that you complete the first course of this specialization, “Introduction to Robotics: Basic Behaviors- before beginning this one
- This course can be taken for academic credit as part of CU Boulder's MS in Computer Science degrees offered on the Coursera platform
- These fullyaccredited graduate degrees offer targeted courses, short 8-week sessions, and pay-as-you-go tuition. Admission is based on performance in three preliminary courses, not academic history
