2.12  Introduction to Robotics

Dear Class,

I have posted the final exam and solutions on stellar, along with an anonymous
spreadsheet that has the final exam grade and aggregate problem set score posted.

http://stellar.mit.edu/S/course/2/fa09/2.12/courseMaterial/topics/topic1/lectureNotes/212_grades_anonymous/anon_212_grades_fall2009.pdf

Your letter grades have been submitted to the registrar and you should be
able to access them with websis.   Overall. the final grading distribution was:
14 A's, 8 B's and 5 C's.

You can stop by my office 5-214 or my assistant Marcia's office 5-207 to pick
up your graded end-of-term exam and any old problem sets.  (Marcia is out
today and Monday and I am tied up in meetings most of the day today).

It was a great pleasure to teach 2.12 this past term -- do not hesitate to contact me
if I can ever offer any advice with future robotics projects, urops, grad school, etc.
Thanks for all your hard work in 2.12

Prof. Leonard

As a reminder, the exam will take place in 3-343, from 2:30-4:30.  If you have a hard constraint at 4:00
and need to begin the exam at 2:00, please let me know ASAP via emial.

You can have four sheets of paper (one side of writing each), with two of these the sheets
that you used for the midterm.

Good Luck
Prof. Leonard

Dear Class

I have posted the end-of-term exam from 2008, and its solution, online under the Review Materials section on the stellar website.

These documents were distributed hardcopy last week in class.

Prof. Leonard

There will be no labs tomorrow or friday.   Remember that Pset 7 is due
in my office 5-214 by 5pm on Friday December 4th. 

Prof. Leonard

1. Because the project competition will occur on Wednesday, December 2nd, Problem Set 7 will now be due on Friday, December 4th (at my office, 5-214, by 4pm)

2. Because of the extra time load of the project, problem 2 of problem 7 is no longer required.  This problem requires some advanced knowledge of state space control to solve fully. We will go through this problem in lecture and I will distribute solutions, but
you do *not* have to turn in this problem -- you only have to do problem 1 (Segway robot).

3. We are returning Pset 6 today in class and distributing pset 6 solutions (they are also on stellar now).

4. If you would like to try to get lab access to work on the project over the long weekend, we might be able to
get help to provide some access -- please email me and we'll see what we can do.

Happy Thanksgiving
Prof. Leonard
