Kinematics Speed Lesson // Studio Day

Today

• Kinematics Speed Lesson (optional)
• Centralized/Decentralized Planning Speed Lesson (optional)
• Final Project Studio

For Next Time

• Work on your Final Project
  • Milestone 2 is due Monday December 8th at 7PM
  • The Final Project will be due Tuesday December 16th at 7PM
• Work on your Broader Impacts Phase 3, due on Friday December 12th at 7PM
• Consider whether there is feedback you’d like to share about the class

Kinematics Speed Lesson (Optional)

If you’re interested in a forward kinematics review (if you’re taken FunRobo) or primer, we’ll have a brief sidebar mini-lecture in the next room over. The informal lesson will draw on materials from:

• Kinematics Overview from The Intelligent Motion Lab at University of Illinois
  • You can check out more from this lab here
• Manipulator Kinematics lecture from the Illinois Institute of Technology

Centralized and Decentralized Planning Speed Lesson (Optional)

If you’re interested in multi-robot coordination and especially different architectures for controlling these swarms, we’ll have a brief sidebar mini-lecture in the next room over. The informal lesson will draw on materials from:

• Centralization vs Decentralization in multi-robot coverage: Ground robots under UAV supervision
• Decentralized Multi-Robot Exploration using Monte Carlo Tree Search
• Planning for Decentralized Control of Multiple Robots Under Uncertainty
• Efficient and Complete Centralized Multi-Robot Path Planning
