Elective
2nd Cycle Studies - Mestrado
Recommended Prerequisites
Linear algebra and analytic geometry, Matrix Calculus, Differential Calculus, Stochastic Estimation, Control, Sensors and Actuators
Teaching Methods
This course adopts as teaching methodologies the presentation of theoretical and conceptual aspects of autonomous robotics is master classes (theoretical classes), complemented with a strong laboratory component where students are able to implement and validate the concepts presented and learned on the master classes by performing simulation studies in Matlab and through the realization of an experimental project using several didactic mobile platforms. ROS development plataform is used on the laboratory component.
Learning Outcomes
This course aims to present the various functional subsystems that comprise a robotic system. The course seeks to provide students with knowledge in the computational aspects of Autonomous Robotics, in particular in modeling, localization, map representation and map generation and robot navigation.
It is intended that students acquire competencies in design, modeling and integration of robotic subsystems, in particular those oriented to mobile robotics, encouraging critical reasoning skills, autonomous learning and ability to apply theoretical concepts to practical problems.
