Summary

Advanced Topics and Research projects in robot manipulation. Lectures will continue the analysis of robot manipulation considering kinematic redundancy, control of robot manipulators in contact with the environment, teleoperation, and biological movement control. Students will perform a project in small teams, report on the projects to the class, and individually present a critical review of a research topic.

Prerequisites

EE543, "Models of Robot Manipulation". Or permission of instructor.

Grading

The grade will be based as follows:

	Oral Presentations and
	 Participation			25%
 

Text(s)

Recommended: Tsuneo Yoshikawa: "Foundations of Robotics." This excellent book will be a valuable reference for your future use. However, we will only use if for about 20% of the course content. I did not order it through the bookstore. Try ebay or Amazon.com. Course notes and reader from the instructor. Will be available from a local copy center or online. Also check
