    Course Overview

    The Robot  Motion Planning  Certification course is an 8-week online course. The IIT Kanpur is responsible for creating and approving the course syllabus, although Swayam is used to deliver the course. Once more, the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, and NPTEL are the organizations that award this course certificate.

    The training in robot motion planning is a part of the robotic engineering elective curriculum. Ashish Dutta is the professor of this certificate programme. The fundamental ideas and mathematics covered in this course will be necessary for understanding, analyzing, and designing the algorithms needed for the motion planning of serial robotic arms.
