About the Course

Embark on a transformative journey where you will learn how to command robotic arms using ROS2—in both real-life and Gazebo simulation environments. You’ll learn not just how to make things work, but why they work, through clear explanations and hands-on projects. Whether you're working with Kinova, UR, Franka, or many other brands, the skills you gain here will help you build robust, scalable control pipelines using modern ROS2 architectures. Perfect for robotics students, engineers, and developers ready to take their skills to the next level

ROBOTRIBE Exclusive Robotics Community

As a student of this course, you’ll get full access to RoboTribe: a private, supportive community built for robotics learners like you. Ask technical questions, share cool projects, explore tools and resources, and connect with fellow builders from around the world — all in one vibrant space

Meet Your Instructor, A Robotic Manipulators Expert

Greetings, fellow robotics enthusiasts! I’m Abed AKA robotogeddon, your guide on this journey into the world of ROS2 and robotic arm control. Like many of you, I started with curiosity and faced the steep learning curve of robotics software. Through years of hands-on experience—both in simulation and with real robotic arms—I’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and how to bridge the gap between theory and practice. This course is built from the lessons I wish I had when starting out. Whether you're a student, a researcher, or an engineer, I’m here to help you build confidence, avoid common pitfalls, and gain real-world skills that matter. Let’s dive in, build together, and shape the future of robotics—one line of code at a time.
