00 Robotics Lec00

This document outlines the administrative details of the Robotics course MCT 4215. It introduces the teaching team led by lecturer Amir A Shafie. It lists the required and recommended textbooks. The learning outcomes are identified as understanding robot structure, performing kinematic and dynamic analysis, and developing robot trajectories. The course content will cover fundamentals, actuators, sensors, kinematics, dynamics, and trajectory planning. Students will be evaluated through quizzes, assignments, a project, midterm, and final exam. The motivation for studying robotics is that students are in the mechatronics engineering program, and robotics integrates mechanics, electronics, control systems, and software.
