  • Ochieng Anthony
    Introduction to Robotics is a good course for anyone planning or doing a Robotics project as this course gives the essential knowledge and skills needed when building a robot like the movement of the parts of the robot.
  • Meticulous in keeping the workplace clean and tidy. Charlotte makes a habit of keeping own area clean and hazard-free and also assists and encourages others to do the same. Reacts quickly and decisively in an emergency, keeping a cool head and effectively leading others. Applies professional experience and/or knowledge uracy. Others trust his judgement because the choices have usually been good. Late on fewer than 3 occasions in 6 months.

    Introduction to Robotics is a comprehensive course that provides an excellent foundation for understanding the fundamental concepts and principles of robotics. The course is well-structured, starting with the basics of robot components, sensors, and actuators, and progressively building upon that knowledge.
    One of the strengths of this course is the clear and engaging way the instructor explains complex topics. The use of real-world examples and interactive simulations helps cement the theoretical concepts, making it easier to grasp the material. The course strikes a good balance between theory and hands-on exercises, ensuring that students not only understand the principles but also gain practical experience.
