Course Overview

The study of robotics lies at the intersection of signal processing, computing, mechanics, mathematics, electronics, and control engineering. Modelling and control play an immense role in the success of a robotic machine and its applications. The Robotics Foundation II – Robot Control course by edX deals with robotics foundations, particularly planning and control.

The programme is the second of a two-part series on robotics by the Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II. The Robotics Foundation II online programme explores the scope of robotics through modules like interpolation techniques, motion control strategies, inverse dynamics, etc. The course concludes by presenting kinematic models of simple vehicles.

This edX course has a duration of 12 weeks and follows a self-paced learning module. Candidates can complete the Robotics Foundation II – Robot Control online course by studying a minimum of eight hours per week. Moreover, an optional certification is also available, and candidates can purchase this after course completion. However, while auditing in the free mode, the students will have access only for a limited duration.
