In this course, you will delve into the groundbreaking intersection of AI and autonomous systems, including autonomous vehicles and robotics. “AI for Autonomous Vehicles and Robotics” offers a deep exploration of how machine learning (ML) algorithms and techniques are revolutionizing the field of autonomy, enabling vehicles and robots to perceive, learn, and make decisions in dynamic environments. Through a blend of theoretical insights and practical applications, you’ll gain a solid understanding of supervised and unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and deep learning. You will delve into ML techniques tailored for perception tasks, such as object detection, segmentation, and tracking, as well as decision-making and control in autonomous systems. You will also explore advanced topics in machine learning for autonomy, including predictive modeling, transfer learning, and domain adaptation. Real-world applications and case studies will provide insights into how machine learning is powering innovations in self-driving cars, drones, and industrial robots. By the course's end, you will be able to leverage ML techniques to advance autonomy in vehicles and robots, driving innovation and shaping the future of autonomous systems engineering.

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
If you subscribed, you get a 7-day free trial during which you can cancel at no penalty. After that, we don’t give refunds, but you can cancel your subscription at any time. See our full refund policy.
