Assignment to Modules

Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks Important: The preliminary discussion to the laboratory will take place on 12 July 2019 at 2 p.m. in room 03.07.011. This laboratory is a hybrid of theoretically conveyed contents, which are applied practically and further developed in subsequent group work. Contents are put into practice on modular, self-programming robots. The laboratory is divided into three phases: I. Theory First, the background of collaborative, human-friendly robots is clarified and an overview is provided. II. practical application This is followed by exercises on various use cases of collaborative robots in a simulation environment. This is followed by potential different topics: benchmarks in which conventional lightweight robots are compared with novel modular robots, different types of robot programming, the optimization of motion planning, or safe, physical human-robot collaboration. III. development work After the theoretical basics are laid and deepened in practical examples, various topics are further developed in small groups of 2-5 students. The topics include robot programming, software development, user interface design, CAD design and mechanics, end effector connection, control engineering and augmented reality.
