The course consists of two parts. During the first one problems of non-industrial robotics are presented with main focus on “behaviour based robotics” which is a new way for controlling robots in non-structured environment such as human environment. Non-industrial robotics includes: overview of potential service which represents a new way of trying to control robots in an unstructured environment such as the human environment. The field of non-industrial robotics includes the following topics: overview of potential applications of service robots (in the household, construction, hazardous areas, inspection robots, rescue robots, ...), robot autonomy, management and regulation in biological systems, comparison of the "management architecture" of biological systems and autonomous robots, types of autonomous robots from the point of view of movement (robots on wheels and tracks, robots jumping, snake robots, robots flying, multi-legged and bifurcated locomotion, ...), robotic learning, grasping, humanoid robots. In the second part of the semester, the problems of automation in non-industrial applications are exposed, with a special accent on residential and business environments, with special attention being given to systems for automatic identification. The concepts of barcode system applications, optical character recognition systems, biometric systems, and smart cards and the RFID system are discussed in detail. In addition, the basics for the application of extended-reality technology in non-industrial applications are addressed.
