About this guide

IntroductionToRobotics-Lecture01 Instructor (Oussama Khatib):Okay. Let’s get started. Welcome to intro to robotics 2008. Happy new year, everyone. In introduction to robotics, we are going to really cover the foundations of robotics. That is, we are going to look at mathematical models that represent robotic systems in many different ways. In fact, you just saw a simulation of a humanoid robotic system that we are controlling at the same time. If you think about a model that you are going to use
