This course will be conducted in a lecture/discussion format. It will examine how AI is/can be used to deliver autonomy to moving things that impact everyday life - today and in the future. The course first defines exactly the scope of physical AI and what such systems need in terms of technology, regulation, and public acceptance to deliver various advantages - safety, efficiency, cost, productivity, and quality of life. After the fundamentals are discussed, specific applications which are currently operational will be discussed, along with their impact and challenges. Finally, course participants will be expected to think about novel physical AI applications that they would like to see happen - and present their concepts, and the WHY, WHAT, and HOW of these concepts.

COURESE LEADER
