Learning library

Make the foundations concrete.

Build working knowledge of robotics and machine learning through examples you can change, calculations you can check, and data you can inspect.

Start with the map of machine learning fields to connect tasks, data, learning signals, and model choices.

Search lesson titles, concepts, and the explanations themselves.

    Trajectory time scaling: choose when a robot follows its path

    Separate a robot’s geometric path from its timing. Compare cubic and quintic profiles, derive joint speed and acceleration through the chain rule, and choose a duration that meets explicit limits.

    Trapezoidal velocity profiles: accelerate, cruise, and stop

    Build a rest-to-rest motion for one linear joint. Derive triangular and trapezoidal velocity profiles, calculate braking distance, and inspect exact position, velocity and acceleration within explicit limits.
