Prerequisites
Objectives
At the end of the course students should be able to identify and evaluate the potential of robotic systems, program industrial robots and determine the automation needs for a given application using robotic manipulators
Program
1.Sensors, actuators and converters;
- Identify the types of sensors and actuators most used in robotics, as well as their operation and applications. Identify type of analog / digital (ADC) and digital / analog (DAC) signal converters, their operation and application.
2. Introduction to robotics;
-Know the history of the appearance of robots and their evolution.
3. manipulative robotics;
- Identify and classify different types of robots on the market and their principles of operation.
4.Kinematics and positioning of the manipulator robot;
-Describe the operation of trajectory generation systems used in robotic manipulators.
5.Robotic robotics;
- Identify and evaluate the potential of using mobile robots.
6.Planning path of the robot;
- Trajectory planning using the reading of positioning sensors.
7. Programming of robotic systems;
- Automatic guided vehicle (AGV) programming methods, using positioning sensor reading and obstacle avoidance.
Evaluation Methodology
Continuous assessment: Practical assignments (10/20);
Work developed throughout the classes (10/20).
The final grade is obtained by the sum of the grades obtained during the continuous assessment and during the periodic assessment.
