Introducing Robotics
Making Robots Move
Most FutureLearn courses run multiple times. Every run of a course has a set start date but you can join it and work through it after it starts. Find out more This course assumes that you are familiar with concepts from advanced high-school mathematics or engineering; in particular, analytic geometry and linear algebra (including points, vectors, matrices, matrix-vector and matrix-matrix multiplication, and linear transformations). You’ll also need to know how to program in MATLAB to complete the practical exercises. You won’t need to download the MATLAB software to complete this course (unless you already have it and wish to use it), as you will be linked directly into an online version of MATLAB through FutureLearn.
