TEK4030 – Control of Manipulators and Mobile Robots
Course content
This course gives you a comprehensive understanding of control methods for robotic arms, known as?manipulators, both for?low-level control and planning of the robot's movements. You will also get detailed knowledge of mobile robots. This includes the characteristics of mobile robots and how to plan and follow trajectories. The focus of the course will be first to learn the theory and then employ this theory in practice, both in simulations and in the lab.
Learning outcome
After completing the course, you
- understand?advanced controllers for manipulators, such as multivariable control, force control, visual servoing, and tele-operation
- have knowledge of how to plan the robot's movements
- understand?the characteristics of mobile robots, i.e. kinematics and dynamics, and how to plan and follow trajectories
- can?use controllers on a physical robot
- can use theory of mobile robots to get a mobile robot to navigate around obstacles
- can use Robotic Operation System "ROS"?to control robots
