ME223

Students will learn how to design and build the mechanical hardware of robots. The goal is to take people with minimal robot-building experience and have them building professional-quality robots by the end of the quarter. The course will consist of three labs and a final project, each of which will entail building an interesting robotic device. Topics include robot actuators, sensors, transmissions, rotary and linear motion, standard mechanisms, electronics, high-level software design, and safety. Some experience with Python and/or C++ is preferred.
