Ask HN: Topics to learn to become a Robotics/AI “engineer”

7 points by ziikutv 9y ago ↗ HN

Hello,

I was wondering what are the topics that a high school graduate needs to learn to become an competent Robotics/AI engineer. I am not in high school, about to finish my undergrad in hardware and software engineering. However, I want to spend the next couple years to learn/review the topics in my free time while working full time.

Here is what I have so far: http://pastebin.com/0igsB7iy

Also in addition to adding topics, if you have any suggested books. I would appreciate it.

You probably want to add some Linear Algebra, Discrete Math and Probability to your tool chest.

Perhaps this list will help: https://www.udacity.com/wiki/nd009?nocache#!#preliminary-res...

Thank you. This will definitely help for the AI section. I am worried about the preliminary stuff more actually, statics/dynamics etc. However, I see that it this topic is sort of buried now so I will simply go ahead and talk to all of my professors.
