The comprehensive course gives you a verified certificate in robotics and is provided by edX and the University Of Pennsylvania. It’s delivered online by two University of Pennsylvania professors with expertise in the computer science and engineering fields and takes twelve weeks to complete.
The advanced course covers MATLAB Robotics, Robotics Kinematics, and Mathematical Foundations. It’s suited to individuals who hold a bachelor’s degree in engineering, or other similar fields, and will teach students the fundamentals of real-world robotics.
Each week, you will study a different area of robotics. During the first four weeks of study, you will receive instruction on math fundamentals, and learn about vector spaces, linear transformations, rotation matrices, and matrix groups. Video lectures are included as part of the launch and will teach you how to analyze problems in robotics, how to use MATLAB, and how to configure mobile robots.
During weeks five to eight, you will study robotic kinematics and cover topics such as kinematic chains, inverse kinematics, and parallel mechanisms. In weeks nine to twelve, you will cover kinematic path planning. This section of the course covers topics such as graph-based methods, RRT, configuration space, and artificial potential fields.
At the end of each four-week segment, you will be required to complete a practical project to showcase what you have learned and give you practical experience of working in robotics. The Robotics MicroMasters Program is self-paced and you will be required to complete eight to 10 weeks of study per week. Further course details can be found by visiting https://tidd.ly/3jvwoZN
You should visit the website to register. After successful completion of the course, you can purchase a verified certificate for an additional fee.
edX is an educational company that provides online programs in computer science and other fields. They have partnered with 160 US universities and provide a range of professional certificates, master's degrees, and MicroMasters programs that are led by university professors.
