490: Wait Until Physics Has Happened

Nikolaus Correll spoke with us about robots, teaching robotics, and writing books about robots.

Nikolaus is a Professor of Computer Science at the University of Colorado, see his lab website (or his Wikipedia page).

We discussed Nikolaus' Introduction to Robotics with Webots Specialization Coursera course (or YouTube Playlist). These go along with his Introduction to Autonomous Robots (which can be compiled from source from github).

Masters of Computer Science online via University of Colorado and Georgia Tech.

While the Arcbotics Sparki is no longer in production, Nikolaus also mentioned the Amazon Racer.
