An open-access curriculum module exploring the architectural frameworks, communication bounds, and machine learning topologies that govern distributed robotics. Covers three-tier cyber-physical hierarchies (embedded edge devices, local fog/edge servers, centralized hyper-scale cloud), non-minimum phase transfer functions, phase lag in delayed feedback control systems, federated learning parameter aggregation, and binary integer programming formulations for multi-robot task allocation (MRTA). Includes an engineering challenges breakdown—addressing non-deterministic network jitter via Smith predictors, sensor bandwidth bottlenecks via edge feature extraction, Byzantine-tolerant model aggregation, and defense-in-depth cyber-physical security—along with a structured technical glossary, interactive quick reviews, conceptual self-assessments, and 12 fully worked LaTeX numerical engineering solutions.

An open-access curriculum module examining the kinematics, dynamic control, perception architectures, and multi-agent coordination of Autonomous Ground Vehicles (AGVs). Details unicycle (differential-drive) and Ackermann bicycle steering models, tire-road lateral friction boundaries, Stanley and Pure Pursuit path-tracking controllers, and Kalman filter multi-sensor fusion. Features an extensive engineering challenges section covering adverse weather perception using 4D imaging radar and thermal LWIR cameras, spatio-temporal graph neural networks (ST-GNNs) for human intent prediction, real-time iteration (RTI) Model Predictive Control (MPC) on automotive ECUs, and IEEE 1609.2 PKI cryptosecurity for V2X connected fleets. Includes interactive quick reviews, conceptual self-assessments, and 12 fully worked LaTeX numerical engineering problems.

A comprehensive open-access curriculum hub for Robotics and Autonomous Systems. Details the full mathematical and systems engineering architecture of modern robotics, including forward and inverse kinematics in $SE(3)$ space, spatial manipulator Jacobians, and Euler-Lagrange articulated dynamics. Synthesizes classical Sense-Plan-Act paradigms with modern embodied AI, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) foundation models, and Sim-to-Real policy transfer. Features an IDEF0 functional process model, an exhaustive map of robotic mechanics, perception, SLAM, ROS 2 middleware, and industrial applications, along with 22 conceptual review questions and 12 fully worked LaTeX numerical engineering solutions.
