Technical requirements

This unit does not require new software from the previous chapter. We will be using Python with NumPy, the matplotlib library to make plots and graphs, and the pickle library to store data.

A robot and a robot arm would be helpful, but all of the functions we will learn in this chapter can also be performed via simulation and modeling, which are included in the examples.
