Student Competition: Mobile Robotics Training
The training materials in this video series will enable your team to get started with designing and simulating common mobile robotics algorithms in MATLAB and Simulink. You will learn how to design open and closed loop feedback control systems for your robot to perform tasks like dead reckoning, line following and obstacle detection. You will also understand how to use the custom simulation tools to test your algorithms within Simulink before deploying them to an actual robot.
