This is the foundational course for robotics at SVC. It provides the initial "hands-on" encounter with robotic systems.
Key Focus: Students are introduced to microcontrollers, automation systems, and robotic motor/servo control.
Skill Development: The course covers programming a robotic work cell to perform specific tasks and designing servo-motor feedback control systems.
Engineering programs, including Skagit Valley College, leverage the AR4 Robot’s accessible internals to teach students exactly how motor controllers and feedback loops operate in a physical 6-axis arm.
