A crash course in robotics for the next generation of Doc Ocks and tech inventors. Students will explore the world of continuum and soft robots, which are differentiated from traditional robots by their flexible, conformable nature. Through this interactive course, students will gain practical engineering experience in the design, modeling and control of continuum robots. Learn the basics of controlling these innovative machines using Python programming, applying mathematical concepts like trigonometry to model their flexible forms. Discover how these flexible machines can be applied to solve critical challenges in healthcare, aerospace, and beyond. Finally, you'll apply the iterative design process to tackle real-world challenges, developing teamwork and problem-solving skills while envisioning the future of robotics in diverse applications.
