Certificate of Achievement
Carlos Manuel Teixeira de Sousa
has completed the following course:
Introducing Robotics: Making Robots Move
Queensland University of Technology
In this course, you described where things are in the world. You considered the case of objects in a 2-dimensional plane. You learnt the concepts of position, pose, rotation and translation. You learnt the principles of forward and inverse kinematics and programmed forward kinematics equations in MATLAB. You explored joint interpolation in two dimensions, and looked at joint control and actuators. You were introduced to robotics in three dimensions.
