Abstract: These four reports will cover basic principles of robots and autonomous systems, including robot manipulators, unmanned ground vehicles (UGV), and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). Robot modeling and dynamics equations are presented and robot kinematics and Jacobians. The fundamentals of computed torque control are given, as well as adaptive and robust control. Extensions are made to force control and robots with link flexibility and motor dynamics.

The dynamic equations of UGV are covered, along with potential field path planning and control.  Quadrotor UAV are studied, including dynamics modeling and nonlinear control schemes. Fixed wing UAV are studied, including dynamics and several control methods.

Control of Robot Workcells is outlined, and some ideas about human/robot interaction (HRI) are presented.
