BTW, Kris has updated his IRA Windows page with some information about installing the SVL library.
Course description
This course is an introduction to algorithms for robotic systems. The
theme of the course is how these algorithms intelligently make use of
sensory information from their environment and purposefully act upon
it. Topics will include motion planning, processing sensor
information, localization, mapping, and handling uncertainty.
We will discuss applications in mobile robotics and in robotic
manipulation. There is a laboratory component of this class in which
students will implement a number of these algorithms on mobile robots.
Prerequisites: CSCI--2300 Data Structure and Algorithms, MATH--1020 Calculus II, and MATH-2800 Introduction to Discrete Structures.
