Course content
Mechatronics and robotics is often viewed from three perspectives: perception (sensing), manipulation (affecting changes in the world), and cognition (intelligence). Mechatronics and robotics systems integrate aspects of all three of these areas. This course provides an introduction to the theory of robotics, and covers the fundamentals of the field, including rigid motions, homogeneous transformations, forward and inverse kinematics of multiple degree of freedom manipulators, velocity kinematics, motion planning, trajectory generation, sensing, and control.
Purpose of class
The purpose of this class is to master the principle for operating mechatronics machines, such as a robot arm and a robot hand.
Goals and objectives
  1. Students should able to understand (1)Dynamics, (2)Manipulability, (3)Position Control, (4)Force Control of robotics.
  2. Students should able to understand (1)analog circuit, (2)digital circuit.
  3. Students should able to understand hardware and software of an electronic computer.
  4. Students should able to understand an sensor integration.
  5. Students should able to understand an actuator of robot and mechatronics.
