00:00:00,870 --> 00:00:04,020
Welcome to the Ross to Robotics developer course.

2
00:00:04,050 --> 00:00:06,540
My name is Raymond and I'll be your instructor.

3
00:00:06,780 --> 00:00:11,490
Before we dive straight into Ross, I want to give you an overview of how this course is organized and

4
00:00:11,490 --> 00:00:13,020
how to get the most out of it.

5
00:00:13,930 --> 00:00:17,280
This course is intended for complete beginners.

6
00:00:17,290 --> 00:00:20,200
Thus the lessons should be completed in order.

7
00:00:20,410 --> 00:00:25,750
But if you have used Ross too before, feel free to jump around to the lectures you feel are relevant.

8
00:00:26,230 --> 00:00:32,380
But note that the Ross to Python API has been completely redone from the Ross version one distributions.

9
00:00:32,980 --> 00:00:36,530
This course is centered around the use of Ross version two in Python.

10
00:00:36,550 --> 00:00:41,740
Ross works across most operating systems and can also be easily run in a virtual machine which will

11
00:00:41,740 --> 00:00:43,060
cover in this course.

12
00:00:43,540 --> 00:00:45,670
This course is taught through four mediums.

13
00:00:45,670 --> 00:00:50,350
The first is in person explanations like I'm doing now to give a general overview.

14
00:00:50,710 --> 00:00:56,380
The second is visual animations meant to aid in visualizing core concepts throughout the course.

15
00:00:56,950 --> 00:01:01,690
The third is screen recordings, in which you can follow along with me on your own computer.

16
00:01:02,230 --> 00:01:07,450
And lastly, there are project walkthroughs in which I give you a project to do on your own that utilizes

17
00:01:07,450 --> 00:01:08,410
what you learned.

18
00:01:08,410 --> 00:01:13,090
And if you get stumped, you can follow along with me in the project walkthrough.

19
00:01:13,690 --> 00:01:19,480
If you ever run into problems, use the Udemy Q&A section below the videos to see if anyone else has

20
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:20,560
had the same issue.

21
00:01:20,740 --> 00:01:25,060
If not, post a new question and I or one of your peers can help.

22
00:01:25,730 --> 00:01:30,350
Lecture resources can be downloaded by clicking on the resources button in the lecture sidebar.

23
00:01:31,290 --> 00:01:35,790
If you enjoy the course, do not forget to leave a course reading so others can see what your experience

24
00:01:35,790 --> 00:01:36,450
was like.

25
00:01:36,870 --> 00:01:42,120
If you feel this course isn't for you, feel free to utilize Udemy course refund policy.

26
00:01:42,510 --> 00:01:43,980
I'd rather you get your money back.

27
00:01:43,980 --> 00:01:48,210
Then you write a bad review which might deter students who could really benefit from this course.

28
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,070
But with all of that out of the way, let's jump in to learning Ross to.
