Contents of teaching:

  • Description of serial robotic systems: This part includes the basic components like different types of joints, sensors and actors. Exemplarily, the differing kinematic types are introduced. Also, the mathematical backgrounds are presented, necessary for the description of robots. The direct and inverse kinematics for typical 6-jointed industrial robots is explained.
  • Parallel robot systems: This part deals with the transfer of the results and mathematical models of part 1 onto robotic systems with parallel kinematics.
  • Movement: Robot movements along trajectories/geometric paths are analyzed. Different techniques of path planning are presented as well as methods to determine the configuration space and to perform velocity planning and kinematics.
  • Robot Control: Techniques of control theory and examples of programming techniques in robotics are introduced. Sensor and systems calibration as a typical application of robotics is explained in detail.

Qualification-goals/Competencies:

  • The students are able to solve application-oriented exercises with mathematical background self-dependent, timely and in team work.
  • They have gained basic understanding for the kinematic features of serial and simple parallel robots (includes knowledge of transformations, Euler-/Tail-Bryan-Angles, quaternions, etc.)
  • They made first experiences with the programming of simple robotic applications.
  • They comprehend the complexity and necessity for different path and dynamic planning techniques.
  • The students gained an insight into simple methods for system and sensor calibration.

Grading through:

  • portfolio exam
