Course content

Total:

30 ECTS

The minor is organized as a continuous block of two quarters. All modules are spread over both quarters.

Every student participates in the following three compulsory modules and a project:

  • Robotics module

    6 ECTS

  • Intelligent Control module

    6 ECTS

  • Vision module

    6 ECTS

  • Project Robotics and Vision

    12 ECTS

The following topics will be addressed: Modeling and control of various types of robots, design and implementation of advanced controllers, and design and development of vision systems (both hardware and software).

Activities offered in this minor include:

  • Dynamic modeling of robots (industrial robots, ground and aerial robots)
  • Path planning and motion/interaction control of robots
  • Analysis of low order linear and linearized systems
  • Design and implementation of advanced controllers that provide high performance, robustness
    and high degree of adaptability to systems
  • Design and development of general purpose and application specific vision systems
  • Development of a vision-based robot application by following a systems engineering approach
  • Use of the robotic operating system (ROS) to realize robotic software
  • Design and development of a proof-of-principle 3D prototype for part(s) of a specific robot
