Recently, robot technologies become a important part of the space engineering. The course teaches the fundamentals of space robots. The demand in the space exploration and development, history, and the basic technologies are explained. This familiarizes students with the advanced technologies in space engineering.
By the end of this course, students will:
-Understand the background and needs of space robots.
-Understand the missions and overviews of space robots.
-Understand the fundamentals of the kinematics and dynamics of space robots.
