===== Additional Labs, in the GSP Lab =====

===== EECS 4421, Introduction to Robotics ======

The course introduces the basic concepts of robotic manipulators and autonomous systems. After a review of some fundamental mathematics the course examines the mechanics and dynamics of robot arms, mobile robots, their sensors and algorithms for controlling them. A Robotics Laboratory is available equipped with a manipulator and a moving platform with sonar, several workstations and an extensive collection of software.

=== Labs ===
Labs typically cover following topics:\\
- Robotic Manipulator \\
- Forward and Inverse Kinematics\\
- Robot Locomotion and Sensing \\
- Robot Vision \\
- Manipulator Velocities and Forces \\
- Control concepts

=== Equipment ===
Following robots and arms are utilized for the labs. \\

//CRS Plus// Robotic Arms A150 and A255 and Pioneer 3AT Mobile Robot.\\
The //CRS Plus// Arms are nearing the end of their life and as such **four new** //Kinova Genlite// robotic arms have also been recently obtained.\\
