ACIT4820 Applied Robotics and Autonomous Systems Emneplan

This course provides a hands-on overview of common theories and methods used in the design of robotic and autonomous systems. The course is organized around weekly practical labs and lectures that complement each other. The student will get hands-on experience with the technologies, algorithms,;and architecture of robotic and autonomous systems. The course uses examples from aerial, space, ground, underwater, and industrial robotic and autonomous systems.;

Knowledge of linear algebra, vector calculus and basic statistics and probability. Knowledge of programming in python and basic introductory course on control;or;dynamical systems;is recommended.

Two internal examiners. External examiner is used periodically.

Professor Pedro Lind

Topics covered in this course:;

• Configuration space
• Rigid body motions
• Robot forward kinematics
• Velocity kinematics and statics
• Inverse kinematics;
• Robotics sensors and;actuators;
• Navigation, state estimation and filtering;algorithms;
• Motion;planning;
• ROS Robot Operating;System;

The participants are expected to know linear algebra, basic functional analysis, and basic concepts in probability theory.

The following required coursework must be approved before the student can take the exam:

Four assignments in groups of 1 - 3 students (1000 - 2000 words per assignment) ;;;;

The assessment will be based on two part-exams:

1);;;; Individual;project;report (4000-6000;words). The project report;counts;80%;of;the;final grade.

2);;;; Individual;project;presentation;(10;minutes). The presentations will be open to public.; The oral;examination;counts;20%;of;the;final grade

Both exams must be passed in order to pass the course.

The oral examination cannot be appealed.

;

New/postponed exam

In case of failed exam or legal absence, the student may apply for a new or postponed exam. New or postponed exams are offered within a reasonable time span following the regular exam. The student is responsible for applying for a new/postponed exam within the time limits set by OsloMet. The Regulations for new or postponed examinations are available in Regulations relating to studies and examinations at OsloMet.

All aids are permitted.

Grade scale A-F.
