Entry requirements
Knowledge in the subject of Automatic control, specifically regarding modeling, frequency response, state-space, state feedback, control design. Knowledge in programming with Matlab, LabView and basic electonics is a plus. These prerequisites corrsepond to the courses R7003E - Automatic Control, R7014E - Advanced control design and E7012E - Mechatronics. Knowledge in English, equivalent to English 6.
Selection
The selection is based on 30-285 credits
Course Aim
The students after the course will be able to understand, design and program fundamental robotic functionalities in the general field of vision and control. After the course, the student should be able to:
show knowledge of the modeling and controling approaches for mobile robots
demonstrate the ability to design and implement path planning algorithms
show knowledge on basic concept in manipulator kinematics and dynamics
demonstrate the ability to use image processing techniques on feature extraction and visual servoing
show deep knowledge with robotic platforms and their operation
demonstrate the ability program multiple robotic platforms in the area of vision and control and to report on this work both orally and in writing.
