Week 1. Introduction to Robotics In Week 1 you will be introduced to the subject of robotics! Specifically, Lesson 1 will define what a robot is, look at the 'attributes' of intelligent robots, and review some careers in robotics. Lesson 2 will look at some of the different industries tha...
Acceleration is much more interesting than speed and more useful if you need to get out of danger behind the wheel: it's how quickly something can speed up or slow down. Measuring acceleration is a bit more tricky than measuring speed because it involves figuring out how speed changes over ...

STEP 4. Twist, curl, and/or cut the chenille stems to decorate the robot. Pin STEP 5. Uncap the markers and turn on the toothbrush. Place the robot on the paper. Adjust the markers if needed to get the robot moving. We found that keeping the length short and having one “leg” lon...
If you find a nice long log you can't break, just feed it into the fire little by little. A good rule of thumb for gathering wood is to get as much as you think you'll need — then double it. You'll go through wood much faster than you think, and the last thing you want ...

Unfortunately, I've run into this issue before. When I was an undergraduate at Georgia Tech studying computer science, I used to work on social robots, and one of my tasks was to get a robot to play peek-a-boo, a simple turn-taking game where partners cover their face and then uncove...
Robot surgery is one of the most fascinating niches of medical robotics. Patients might die in some parts of the world because they don’t have access to a doctor who knows how to treat them. Remote robotic surgeries could change that. In 2022, researchers at MIT announced a new system th...
