| Course Objectives | The main objective of this course is to familiarize students with the interdisciplinary field of robotics. The student must learn the Kinematics and Dynamics model of Serial manipulator, their correspondence with the real world. The course is designed with the objective of introducing students to the position and velocity-based control of robots. At the end of the course, the students should have gained aptitude in understanding, designing and implementation of the robot's control to perform certain task.
