Associated Term: Spring 2016
Levels: Indiana College Network, Undergraduate, Graduate, Professional West Lafayette Campus Lecture Schedule Type Learning Outcomes: The primary objective of this course is for students to work hands-on to design, implement, program and debug robotic software systems. This course begins with an introduction to the basic concepts and skills of robotics including hardware and software components. Students will learn to play with embedded processors such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi and build their own robots using a robotic development platform. Next, students will explore state-of-the art programming tools such as ROS (Robot Operating System) and MATLAB/Simulink to learn about the principles and practices of software design and development in robotics. Students will also participate in discussions and debates, listen to guest speakers from the robotics field, and work on team or individual projects. Via hands-on engagement with a project, students will get experience with solving real non-trivial problems. Required Materials: This course does not require a text book. The instructor will provide lecture notes via Blackboard and lab materials in a class. Students will be recommended to read relevant research papers from journals/proceeding publishers. Technical Requirements: Intermediate programming skills are a prerequisite to successfully complete a research project in this course. View Catalog Entry
