Registrar description
This course introduces students to industrial robotic arms and their application for digital fabrication and construction automation. This course utilizes Robot Operating System (ROS) and Python to plan, visualize, simulate, and control industrial robotic arms. ROS and Python are both widely used in robotics research and development. Prerequisite knowledge of ROS and Python is not required. By the end of this course, students will be able to utilize this platform to develop robotic processes for digital fabrication and will be familiar with state-of-the-art research on robotic fabrication and construction automation.
