About Master the First Principlesof Robotics - Robotics 101
Robotics 101 is a course from Ubicoders on control and estimation for engineers building a UAV or UGV on their own. It teaches how to build autonomous machines from first principles, covering flying a drone autonomously, balancing unstable systems, trusting a noisy sensor and estimating the unseen. It is a technical course.
The curriculum begins with Python basics, trigonometric functions, Taylor and Fourier series and linear algebra, and includes a course guide and code environment setup with Conda. The page says five technologies make up an autonomous machine. Check the official page for the full level-by-level outline.
