Motion Planning

3 credits · College of Engineering catalogue

Advisory Prerequisite: Undergraduate linear algebra (e.g. MATH 214) and significant programming experience (e.g. EECS 281). Enforced Prerequisite: None. (3 credits) Focuses on algorithms that reason about the movement of robots. These algorithms can be used to generate sequences of motions for cars, arms, and humanoids. Students will implement motion planning algorithms in open-source frameworks, read recent literature in the field, and complete a project that draws on the course material.
