ROBAI 380 - Architectural Robotics and Mechatronics Design



5.0 Credits
This course focuses on robot architectures and the integration of mechanism, electronics, sensors, actuators, and computer control to achieve a functional robot. Students configure, design, and implement a succession of mechatronic subsystems, leading to a complete system. Topics include: systems design and integration, integration and communication issues and strategies, and subsystem prototyping and testing
Prerequisite ETEC 245.
Course-level Learning Objectives (CLOs)
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

  1. Summarize the various components of a mechatronic system and explain challenges in systems integration.
  2. Analyze feasibility of complex designs based on existing constraints, and develop recommendations for systems specifications and technical solutions.
  3. Develop, build models, and test functionality of mechatronic subsystems.
  4. Design, implement, and test robotic systems based on multiple mechanic, electronic, and control elements and subsystems.
  5. Compare assembly and manufacturability considerations of the integrated system.
  6. Evaluate system robustness and performance, and develop recommendations for design improvements.
