MATLAB for Robotics

Sun, 13 Sep 2026

Introducing the foundational mathematics of 2D robot movement in MATLAB. The session guided participants
through essential concepts like defining a robot's state, using 2D rotation matrices, calculating navigation errors, and applying odometry for actuation. To reinforce these principles, the event concluded with a set of hands-on programming challenges, such as implementing waypoint navigation and intercepting a moving target.
