This document announces a two-week online program on robot kinematics from December 9-23, 2022. It will cover topics like kinematics analysis of robot mechanisms through advanced simulation and validation. One session will discuss robot simulation and control using ROS, explaining what ROS is, its applications, and how to use it for simulating and controlling mobile robots and robot manipulators. Participants will have hands-on activities simulating and controlling a Turtlebot 2 and Franka Emika Panda robot. Resources for learning more about ROS are also provided.
