Overview

This course introduces essential concepts in robotics with an integrated design project covering elements of development and deployment. The course equips participants with necessary skills and knowledge to design, develop, integrate and evaluate robots for domain specific applications. Key topics covered include mechanisms, perception, actuators, autonomy, and application specific robots. The team-based design project is centred on application development for an autonomous mobile robot. Application driven hardware and software development exercises are covered as part of the design project.
