Course Overview
Fast paced course to give you the hands-on experience with programming the Robots in Webots simulator using Python.
This course is designed with the intention of giving you practical and hands-on knowledge to get started with programming the mobile robot and robotic arm in Webots simulator. Webots is a widely used simulator in industries and for research purpose and it has a wide range of robots that you can simulate. In this course, you will learn some very critical concepts of Robotics like how to implement inverse kinematics to the robotic arm. The use of an Inverse Kinematics library that you will learn in this course will not only help you in Webots simulation but also in other software where you are programming real robots.
In this course, you will create a typical factory simulation where the robotic arm will pick an object from the conveyor and place it on the mobile robot. The mobile robot will transfer the object from one place to another in factory environment. And a second Robotic arm will pick the object from the mobile robot and place it on the conveyor. This system will be controlled with multiple controllers programmed in Python.
Robot simulation is highly used in industries where the cost and risk in the project is high. This course will help you in gaining the skill that is required in the industries and also help you in creating the base infrastructure for your future projects.

The teacher was knowledgeable and shared that knowledge in a clear, concise manner. The information was useful. It was easy to follow along. The preparation was a little lacking. He kept running into errors. Overall, good course!

The most useful information in this course was the installation of Webots and Python and basic robot setup . Unfortunately, much of the running time in this course is watching the instructor tweak variables for robot positioning. Take note also that of the 34 chapters in this course, only 14 are over two minutes and only one reaches 10 minutes in length. I wouldn't recommend this course at its full price (almost $60usd at time of writing this review). I purchased this course during a sale and still think that the price might have been a little bit too high. None of the information was bad, though the audio track was ahead of the video in a few places which made following along a bit confusing, especially for someone new to Webots.
