Course Objectives (Course-level Student Learning Outcomes):
1) Examine localization and mapping algorithms for robots 2) Use ROS's SLAM implementations to help a robot localize and map its environment 3) Design and implement path planning algorithms for a robot 4) Use machine learning to teach a robot to learn to do a task 5) Develop code to allow a pair or robots to work together. 6) Apply C++ and Python to robotic software development 7) Design, develop, and test robots as member of a team
Topics Covered (In Outline/Calendar):
Advanced use of ROS, artificial intelligence and robotics, sensor fusion, localization, mapping, SLAM algorithm, planning, and cooperation among groups of robots.
Student Learning Outcomes:
- Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions. (SLO1)
- Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline. (SLO2)
- Apply computer science theory and software development fundamentals to produce computing-based solutions. (SLO6-CS)
