Learn about how to make mobile robots move in effective, safe, predictable, and collaborative ways using modern control theory. This course investigates how to make mobile robots move in effective, safe, and predictable ways. The basic tool for achieving this is "control theory", which deals with the question of how dynamical systems, i.e., systems whose behaviors change over time, can be effectively influenced. In the course, these two domains - controls and robotics - will be interleaved and we will go from the basics of control theory, via robotic examples of increasing complexity - all the way to the research frontier.

Mobile app development does not have to be as painstaking as it has been in previous years. Building hybrid mobile applications with javascript, HTML, and CSS enables you to deploy your app on multiple platforms without having to learn a new programming language for each platform. Hybrid apps enable you to re-use your existing javascript and HTML skills to quickly build compelling apps. Icenium is one of the best tools available today for building cross-platform applications. Icenium represents a giant leap forward for development tools for mobile apps. In this course, we will look at all of the major features of Icenium including the three IDEs, the robust Icenium simulator, debugging with Icenium, built-in project templates, working with plugins, Everlive services, source control, deployment, and more!

Written by programming legend Charles Petzold and created jointly by Microsoft Press and Xamarin Inc., this Preview Edition ebook is about writing applications for Xamarin.Forms, the new mobile development platform for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone unveiled by Xamarin in May 2014. Xamarin.Forms lets you write shared user-interface code in C# and XAML (the eXtensible Application Markup Language) that maps to native controls on these three platforms. (The final edition of this ebook will be published in the spring of 2015.)
