RIM@GT Offering Public Short Courses on Robotics

On April 26-27, the Center for Robotics & Intelligent
Machines (RIM) will teach four short courses, open to anyone who wants to
enroll and covering a range of topics in robotics.

The courses include:

• Fundamentals
  of Autonomous Vehicle Design and Control (COMP 7101P)—Explore robotic
  computing and software development through simulation and design of a controller
  (with mission planning) for an autonomous robot.
• Fundamentals
  of Industrial Robotics and Deployment of Robots (COMP 7102P)—Learn the
  fundamentals of industrial automation and robotics including the hardware,
  controls, equipment and implementation of a robotic system.
• Human-Robot
  Interaction (COMP 7100P)—Learn core human-robot interaction challenges: human-robot
  teamwork and collaboration, robots learning from people, robots sensing and
  modeling people in their environments.
• Perception in
  Robotics (COMP 7103P)—Survey the state of the art in robotic perception,
  one of the key enablers to deploying robots in more realistic and unpredictable
  environments.

Following the courses on April 28, all participants are
invited to RIM to attend tours and demonstrations from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.  That evening from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m., RIM will
hold a reception and student poster session, “RIM Keeps You on the Edge,” in the
Klaus Atrium.
