This course focuses on the development of "brains" for robots. That is, given a machine with sensing, actuation, and computation, how do we develop programs that allow the machine to function autonomously? The course development book is meant to be a resource for anyone interested in teaching a similar undergraduate robotics course or for robot hobbyists who want to get up and running with both a robot hardware and software platform. CS148 projects center on a "robot soccer" task, where students program the Brown iRobot Create/ASUS robots using either the Player/Stage/Gazebo (PSG) or the Robot Operating System (ROS) robot framework. The following outlines each of the chapters in the book. Chapter 1: Course Objectives Chapter 2: Getting Started Chapter 3: Robot Middleware Chapter 4: Create Spotting Chapter 5: Enclosure Escape Chapter 6: Object Seeking Chapter 7: Path Planning Chapter 8: Localization Chapter 9: Subsumption Chapter 10: Multi-Robot Coordination Chapter 11: Learning |
