Getting Started as a Robotics Software Engineer!

Do you want to learn how to become a robotics software engineer? In this video I tell you how to get started - what to buy and what to practise. I talk about what hardware to buy and how to start learning your first programming language, then recommend a couple of robot kits to get some actual hardware and finish with some general advice.

I'm passionate about this. I am a mechanical engineer and I want to learn AI, mechanical, and software engineering robotics. My dream is to develop robots that can build spaceships in space or start to build structures on the moon and Mars to start to colonize them. Alsoto have a small Iron Man laboratory version.

Great advice for the beginners. I have just started my masters in robotics in uk

[KillerRobotz]

I been testing ros2 and gazebo for simulation and setting joints

[heerthirajah]

awesome. thank you so much for the video

[ugwuchiagozie]

Thanks so much for this. Quite helpful

[jackychan]

Thanks for your video and your explanation

[nikkiinit]

Great video! That’s all the information anyone who wants to start need!

[sagnikghatak]

Just started learning ROS a few days ago and youtube could not have recommended me a better video. As a Master's student in autonomous systems with no clarity on what to do, this video provided me with some great insight and tools.👍 How do i connect with you on linkedin?

Great video. I love robots and would like to learn more about building, programming and operating them. On another note, does your advice also apply to those of us who also want to learn about drones? Thanks.

Hi my area is interest is deep learning and reinforcement learning for robotics, till now I have learnt C++ python and ros2 and now I’m learning mL and deep learning and computer vision

[kartikeyyendhe]

Thankyou, it really helpfull for me! please could you make videos on embedded systems??

[greyskull-wwof]

Thank you mike great video! if u have time please make more videos of you developing projects in ROS.

Thanks for tips. Im glad I found this channel. I’m currently a computer science student. I have 5 years experience as an electrical control system technician. I have been tinkering with arduino and microcontrollers for years. I’m currently learning Java at school. But learned python at work. Finally understanding classes and methods for oop. I been thinking about but a kit with the jetson nano. I want to work in farmbot industry.

Thank you very much my man! however i am EEE undergrad but not sure what to choose as my post graduate subject to pursue full robotic systems. thanks again!

[raffayshahzad]

Great video, Mike! What advice would you give to someone interested in programming ML algorithms for aerial robotics, specifically for quadcopters/drones in areas like object detection and collision avoidance? I'm a CS major and I'm considering pursuing this as a career path.

Im starting my bachelor's in electronics and communication, what skill should i learn first as to be a robotics engineer in future??

[GameFiai]

Is this possible without any degree? I dropped out of college and took on a sales job but I have been learning python, data analysis and machine/deep learning for a few years now on my own.

[KillerRobotz]

I got a hi wonder humanoid robot, i need to know how to make a urdf file that i can just replace and update to make the robot move n scan on its own, i wanna do python but its a xarco file or urdf

[RutikKharat-nb]

How many and which programming languages are taught in Robotics Engineering?

[RutikKharat-nb]

To become a Robotic Software Engineer we should major in Robotics Engineering or Computer Science & Engineering?
