About this course: Control of Mobile Robots is a course that focuses on the application of modern control theory to the problem of making robots move around in safe and effective ways. The structure of this class is somewhat unusual since it involves many moving parts - to do robotics right, one has to go from basic theory all the way to an actual robot moving around in the real world, which is the challenge we have set out to address through the different pieces in the course.

Ratings and Reviews
i really likes the course very much it provides me with basic stuff how to develop a control design and how can we implement the same
helped in my PID control systems.
Great introductory course! Would be better if there are more step by step hints for the programming exercises as well as a submission system.
