Any advice for a beginner in robotics?

Hello all,

I would appreciate it so much if anyone and everyone could help me out.

I have a passion for robotics. I spend my time reading on related related. I'm pretty good with the theory aspect, and I've gotten an admission for MSc Robotics and smart technologies in England. And I have a BSc Software Engineering degree.

I don't know where to start from as I want to start building and programming robots, and get some basic skills and idea before school starts. If you all can share some tips? Should I jump into using arduinos? What simulator do you recommend for beginners? Any youtube pages that will help?

I'd appreciate any input I can get.

Robotics is a large topic: sensing, control of the global logic with PLC, communication, actuators,...
Ardunio will give you a first idea about the base concepts.
Then when it comes to deploy an insdustrial system you will have to apply to same concepts but will industrial grade equipment.
