Abstract

My personal robotics journey began with RoboCup 2007 hosted by Ga Tech that summer. I was so impressed by the advancement in humanoid robotics on display there and thought that this could be an important component for engineering instruction at The University of Georgia, as at that time we were seeking to expand engineering beyond biological and agricultural engineering. Also at RoboCup 2007, I met Mr. Jinwook Kim from ROBOTIS and was introduced to the Bioloid Comprehensive and Expert kits which were about the only “in-depth” but “affordable” robotic systems at the time.
