additional remarks | Imagine that you are at the natural history museum. You wander around and take a look at different parts of the museum. Suddenly, a robot in the form of a long extinct species – the Dodo – moves towards you, starts talking to you and tells you about itself. This course covers constructing an autonomous, intelligent walking Dodo-like robot, which requires a combination of a wide spectrum of fields, including design, control, navigation, locomotion, perception and AI. During this laboratory course, the students will develop the necessary skills to design and construct various components of “Mecha-Dodo”, as part of a long-term, iterative project.After some introductory classes, a practical phase will follow in which the students work closely together in interdisciplinary groups. The students will be divided into three groups: 1. modeling and control in Matlab/Simulink; 2. hardware/software development, including design of the mechanical and electrical components, microcontroller programming and low-level motor control; and 3. CAD design, which encompasses the mechanical design of links and frames as well as 3D printing of the respective parts. All components will be integrated in a unified prototype. The long-term goal is to bring the famous Dodo back to life within a collective effort. |
