mithi/robotics-coursework

robotics-coursework is a curated list of places to learn robotics online, maintained by Mithi. It collects courses, video lectures, hands-on projects, blogs, and supplementary tools in one place, organized so someone new to the field can find a path into the subject without getting lost in search results. The course section covers a wide range of learning formats and institutions. Free options include MIT OpenCourseWare robotics lectures, Coursera and EdX offerings from Northwestern University, ETH Zurich, Columbia, Penn, and others, plus standalone YouTube lecture series from professors at Freiburg, Berkeley, MIT, and Stanford. Paid options from Udacity (self-driving cars, flying cars, sensor fusion) and The Construct platform are also listed. Courses span foundational topics (kinematics, control theory, probability, motion planning) through specialized areas like aerial robots, SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), manipulation, and deep learning for robotics. The hands-on section links to actual robot projects you can build or simulate: hexapod walkers, quadruped dogs, Arduino drones, self-driving mini cars, and the Hugging Face LeRobot project. These are useful if you prefer learning by building rather than sitting through lectures. The repository also highlights the author's own hexapod robot simulator as a reference project. A useful concepts section covers Kalman filters, control systems, mechanical design, and machine learning as supporting knowledge that robotics relies on. The list is annotated with icons: a sprout for curated fundamental content, a dollar sign for paid resources, a video camera for lecture series, and a heart for the author's personal bookmarks. There is also a companion page for prototyping with Arduino or Raspberry Pi, and a separate book list. No license is stated. The repository is language-agnostic since it is a resource list, not code.
