Aims |
|
This module aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the benefits and drawbacks of the various methods in robotperception and manipulation and hands on experience using tools as well as coding of own algorithms. |
Learning Outcomes |
|
(LO1) Demonstrate a systematic understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of robot perception and manipulation. |
|
(LO2) Describe state-of-the-art techniques in robotics, particularly on visual and touch perception, perception algorithms and control methods for robot manipulation. |
|
(LO3) Debate the benefits and drawbacks of the various methods in robot perception and manipulation. |
|
(LO4) Apply the taught methods in real-world applications (e.g., warehouse robotics problems). |
|
(LO5) Illustrate hands-on experience using tools as well as coding of own algorithms for robot perception and manipulation. |
|
(S1) Self-management readiness to accept responsibility (i.e. leadership), flexibility, resilience, self-starting, appropriate assertiveness, time management, readiness to improve own performance based on feedback/reflective learning. |
|
(S2) Positive attitudeA 'can-do' approach, a readiness to take part and contribute; openness to new ideas and a drive to make these happen. Employers also value entrepreneurial graduates who demonstrate an innovative approach, creative thinking, bring fresh knowledge and challenge assumptions. |
|
(S3) Teamwork respecting others, co-operating, negotiating / persuading, awareness of interdependence with others. |
|
(S4) Communication skills listening and questioning, respecting others, contributing to discussions, communicating in a foreign language. |
|
(S5) Literacy application of literacy, ability to produce clear, structured written work and oral literacy - including listening and questioning. |
|
(S6) Application of numeracy manipulation of numbers, general mathematical awareness and its application in practical conte§xts (e.g. measuring, weighing, estimating and applying formulae). |
|
(S7) Problem solving analysing facts and situations and applying creative thinking to develop appropriate solutions. |
