Robotics For Beginners

This is a learning guide for absolute beginners who want to build a humanoid walking robot from scratch.

This assumes the following:

1. You want to build something substantial, like a walking robot, but have no prior experience.
2. You don't know the basic terminology, parts that a humanoid robot should be comprised of. e.g. actuators, servos, etc.
3. You don't know the basic software and algorithms that train a humanoid robot to move.
4. You don't know how to start building a walking robot with the available open-source resources.
5. You want a step-by-step guide of how to build this walking robot.

FAQs before starting:

1. Do I need to know math, programming and machine learning concepts to build this humanoid robot?
2. How much do I need to know before starting?
3. What is your teaching approach?

Basic terminology and why they are important:

1. Actuators
2. Difference between underactuated and overactuated
3. Servos
