Course Description
The course introduces the design and control principles of dynamical robots, as exampled by the MIT mini Cheetah quadruped robot, a fabulous dynamical under-actuated mechanical system. We will introduce both theories and practices, focusing on how to project theories into designs and how to dig the fundamental principles underlying practices. "Hands-on" is the most efficient way in learning, especially if you can learn while playing.
Topics include forward and inverse kinematics, robot simulation in a python-based physical engine, nonlinear control and modern control theory, deep-mimc dynamics of robotic control with motion capture, actuator design and motor control. Hopefully, we can keep you in touch with most advanced technology development, such as AI. You can design and develop robots that are more dynamic and more agile than the current state-of-the-art later on.
