COMP.4520 Robot Design

Id: 042500 Credits: 3-3

Description

In this course, we will study the field of robotics from the perspective of designing robot systems, through a series of lectures, readings, and lab-based assignments and projects. Topics include sensors, locomotion, autonomy, control architectures, application domains, and current research. You will design, build and program a robot to complete a series of small challenges in the start of the semester (restricted design constraints). The second part will be focused on the selecting a problem domain, then designing, building, and programming a robot for the final project (less restricted constraints).
