WEBVTT 00:00.400 --> 00:05.160 To successfully complete this course and master all the concepts that will be covered. 00:05.480 --> 00:08.080 I recommend you following some simple guidelines. 00:09.080 --> 00:14.280 Carefully follow all the instructions for setting up the development environment on your PC. 00:14.920 --> 00:20.680 It is crucial that all the components and softwares are properly configured and installed on your PC 00:20.720 --> 00:23.320 before moving on to the robot development. 00:24.040 --> 00:30.040 If something is unclear or you encounter any issue during this setup, please stop and ask me for help. 00:30.480 --> 00:36.000 Remember that if I have been unclear or something is not working, there might be other students who 00:36.040 --> 00:38.640 have or will have the same problem. 00:39.360 --> 00:46.280 So first check the Q&A section to see if your question has already been answered or ask for a new question. 00:47.280 --> 00:52.520 This way you will help other students in their learning journey, and you will assist me in providing 00:52.560 --> 00:54.640 up to date and quality lessons. 00:55.560 --> 01:00.400 The programming lessons where we will put into practice all the concepts learned in the theoretical 01:00.400 --> 01:02.680 lessons will be duplicated. 01:02.840 --> 01:07.520 So we will develop the same functionalities both in C plus plus and Python. 01:08.330 --> 01:13.610 However, there will be some functionalities that can be implemented using only one of these two programming 01:13.610 --> 01:14.250 languages. 01:14.770 --> 01:20.570 I have tried to minimize the components that can be implemented in just one of these languages, but 01:20.570 --> 01:26.730 unfortunately this is not due to the implementation choice, but because in Ros2 some packages that 01:26.730 --> 01:29.570 we are going to use are still under development. 01:30.090 --> 01:35.690 I will make sure to add support for both programming languages as soon as it becomes available. 01:36.570 --> 01:41.690 Take advantage of these shortcomings to become familiar with both programming languages. 01:42.490 --> 01:48.370 Also, remember that this course does not focus on programming, but on robotics and ros2. 01:48.730 --> 01:54.050 Therefore, I will not dwell too much on explaining the syntax of the programming language that I'm 01:54.050 --> 01:54.490 using. 01:55.010 --> 02:00.610 However, don't worry if something is unclear or I'm unable to convey all the steps. 02:01.050 --> 02:04.450 All the code is available for you to analyze at your own pace. 02:05.330 --> 02:07.650 Regarding the euros two framework instead. 02:07.930 --> 02:14.210 Before using any components or concepts for this framework, there will be a theoretical lesson in which 02:14.210 --> 02:19.750 I will explain the logic of its functioning, followed by a laboratory lesson where the same concept 02:19.750 --> 02:22.590 will be used in a simple, practical example. 02:23.190 --> 02:28.510 If you are already familiar with Ros2 or with that particular concept, you can confidently move on 02:28.550 --> 02:34.710 to the next lesson where we are going to use these same functionalities for the development of our manipulator 02:34.710 --> 02:35.270 robot. 02:36.470 --> 02:42.070 Throughout the course, all the concepts explained in the theoretical lessons will be applied to the 02:42.070 --> 02:46.670 construction of a real manipulator that you can use then to develop your own ideas. 02:47.350 --> 02:52.990 Alternatively, if you are unable to build the robot, I will provide you anyway with a simulator that 02:52.990 --> 02:54.830 you can run on your PC. 02:54.870 --> 03:02.470 During the course, these two tools are essential for putting into practice everything that you have 03:02.470 --> 03:08.590 learned during the course, and most importantly, you can use then these tools to test your own ideas 03:08.590 --> 03:11.430 and experiment with developing new functionalities. 03:12.190 --> 03:18.550 So take your time and occasionally pause this course to familiarize yourself with the tools and the 03:18.550 --> 03:20.230 concepts that I will provide. 03:20.510 --> 03:22.950 And remember to have fun with your robot.
