Introduction to Vision & Robotics: Shape Description

Robotics and Vision applies AI techniques to the problems of making devices capable of interacting with the physical world. This includes moving around in the world (mobile robotics), moving things in the world (manipulation robotics), acquiring information by direct sensing of the world (e.g. machine vision) and, importantly, closing the loop by using sensing to control movement. This module introduces the basic concepts and methods in these areas, and serves as an introduction to the more advanced robotics and vision modules.
