Hubo mobile robot in a mock-up convenient store, approaching to grap a bottle.
It is expected that robots with some sort of intelligence will be a part of our lives in future. Many challenges are ahead of us to realize robots to be a part of our lives. In this course, we will consider issues of motion planning of real and virtual robots for various applications. We will focus more on virtual robots and their applications in games, movies, virtual prototyping, crowd simulations. We will go over basic materials related to motion planning and their applications.
