 * '''Homework''': Homework is usually due ten days after it is assigned, and is intended to test your comprehension of material covered during lectures. Instructions for submission will be provided with each homework.
-* '''Labs''': Students will form groups of 2-3 people and perform lab experiments together. The lab will consist of implementing and testing basic algorithms on a mobile robot, and demonstrating the result, as well as submitting a copy of the code underlying the lab demonstration. The first lab is intended to review control of the differential drive robots in the lab, and introduce some additional motion planning challenges that were abstracted for you in ME/CS 132(a). The second lab will occur after most of the course material has been covered in lecture, and is intended to help you prepare for the final project. Its timing is also intended to spark ideas for the final project proposal, so students are advised to use it as an exploratory device rather than stick to the bare bones of the assignment.

-ME/CS 132(b) is primarily a project-based course, and sixty percent (60%) of the grade will be based on a <b> final project</b> which is due during finals period.  The final project can potentially be done in teams, with the instructor's approval. The grade will also be based on <b> 2 homeworks</b> (20% of total grade) and <b> 2 lab assignments </b> (20% of total grade).
