Autonomous Robotics

Objective

• The student will independently understand the principles of mobile robotic systems and be able to apply them in practical applications. They will master the basics of autonomous mobile robots, drones and sensor technologies and will be able to analyse and optimise related systems.
• The student will be able to design and implement robot navigation, positioning and path planning using sensor fusion, artificial intelligence and simulation tools. They will be familiar with the main software frameworks and be able to use them to control mobile robots and drones.
• The module will develop the student's ability to apply the potential of sensors and AI in autonomous systems. They will be able to analyse and process sensor data, apply machine learning methods for decision making and implement practical applications on physical robot platforms and in simulations.
• By the end of the module, the student will be able to work as an expert in the development, programming and application design of autonomous robots, drone technology and sensor systems in different industrial and service environments.
