Educational objectives Knowledge of methods to mathematically describe the pose of a rigid body.
Knowledge of the kinematic model and the dynamic model of a robotic manipulator.
Knowledge of techniques for trajectory planning.
Knowledge of the main control schemes for robotic manipulators.
Ability to use some of the main software libraries available for simulating robotic manipulators (eg: Robotics Toolbox).
Prerequisites In order to understand the contents presented in the course, and achieve the learning objectives, it is useful to have a good knowledge of Linear Algebra, Analysis and Physics (Mechanics).
Teaching methods Teaching is organized as follows: - frontal lectures in classroom; - seminar lectures; - guided exercises. Teaching support tools: whiteboard, PC, projector.
