Elements of Robotics
This open access book bridges the gap between playing with robots in school and studying robotics at the upper undergraduate and graduate levels to prepare for careers in industry and research. Robotic algorithms are presented formally, but using only mathematics known by high-school and first-year college students, such as calculus, matrices and p
Zero to MATLAB
If one is reading this, they are likely interested in solving science and engineering problems. They are also likely taking a course that requires them to learn MATLAB. They might ask themselves why they should learn to code, reasoning that if they had wanted to major in computers, they would have. The most obvious reason is that there are almost n
