Description:
- Would you like to learn Robotics and ROS 2 , the second and last version of Robot Operating System by building a real robot?
- The philosophy of this course is the Learn by Doing and quoting the American writer and teacher Dale Carnegie
- Learning is an Active Process. We learn by doing, only knowledge that is used sticks in your mind.
- In order for you to master the concepts covered in this course and use them in your projects or, why not, also in your future job.
- I will guide you through the learning of all the functionalities of ROS both from the theoretical and practical point of view.
- Each section is composed of three parts:
- Theoretical explanation of the concept and functionality
- Usage of the concept in a simple Practical example
- Application of the functionality in a real Robot
- I almost forgot! We need one more, essential and exciting part of this course for your active learning!
- Experiment, Develop and Test your ideas in the Robot (real or simulated in your PC)
- In each Section of the course, I’ll introduce you a new concept and then we will use it to add new functionalities to the robot:
