Description
The course provides a general understanding of the theory of robotic manipulator. Students will develop skills in the analysis and synthesis of robotic arms. The content / syllabus of the module includes spatial transformations and descriptions, robot kinematics, robot dynamics, trajectory planning, control of robots, robot work-cell design, robot programming, and building your own robot.
The course will specifically:
• Develop mathematical skills for analysis and synthesis or robotic manipulators;
• Develop skills in selection of different robots and systems for various automation tasks;
• Provide knowledge of future trends in robotics and industrial automation.
On completion of the course, students should be able to:
• Demonstrate learning of the theory of robotic manipulators for analysis and synthesis of armed robots;
• Simulate the motion of articulated robots;
• Control the robot arms to follow a prescribed trajectory;
• Program an actual robotic manipulator using state-of-the-art software.
