# MH633 : Mobile Robotics (IIT Patna)

<figure><img src="/files/kfN5uVRn3u8hJPBDN8lB" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

This guide distills fundamental concepts from a mobile robotics course, focusing on the mathematical and theoretical underpinnings necessary for understanding robot motion, perception, and control. It covers coordinate transformations, kinematics of wheeled robots and manipulators, basic control strategies, and an introduction to image processing for robotic vision.

*(Based on course notes by Dr. Atul Thakur, IIT Patna. For full details and derivations, refer to the original course materials and recommended textbooks like "Introduction to Robotics: Mechanics and Control" by J.J. Craig and "Introduction to Autonomous Mobile Robots" by Siegwart, Nourbakhsh, and Scaramuzza.)*
