Educational Goals

The course aims to introduce the student to the basic concepts of Robotics Basic concepts of Robotics, spatial descriptions of a robot’s position/orientation and rotations are described.
The principles of kinematic analysis are presented, both for the forward and inverse kinematic problem. A dynamic analysis of robotic systems is also carried out, as well as an in-depth analysis of the description, design and trajectory production.
Control and programming techniques for robotic operators are presented. At the same time, an introduction to moving robots will be given, presenting the types and mechanisms of movement of autonomous robots and their kinematics.
Finally, there is a laboratory study project with the Kawasaki robotic arm as well as an introduction to the Robot Operating System (ROS).

After attending the course students should:

  • They know the basic concepts of Robotics.
  • Solve basic kinematic problems.
  • To design trajectories of robotic arms.
  • Understand the basic principles of animated robots.

General Skills
