The course was first offered in the Fall of 2022 as a technical elective to be taken byengineering students, primarily from the aforementioned majors.Course OverviewStudents were introduced to basic concepts and applications of robotics, including topics onsensors and actuators, kinematics, control systems, localization, and state-of-the-art industrypractices and future directions. The project-based course included laboratory exercises thatallowed students to develop programs and assemblies to work on robotic manipulators andmobile robots. To begin with, students needed to understand and analyze the five
