Native organizations units: Department of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management
General information:
 
Category Scientific-professional
Scientific or art field Mehatronika, robotika i automatizacija i integrisani sistemi
ECTS 10

The course goal is to make students, having in mind their previous knowledge and interests, familiar with the new topics in the field of Non-Industrial Robotics, which is a field that is becoming increasingly more important, and to introduce them to research study.

The expected educational outcomes of this course are the student`s knowledge and ability to fully understand the topics and issues related to Non-Industrial Robotics and his/her involvement in research work in this field of study.

In accordance with the student`s interests, some of the following topics will be further studied: applications for service robots (in a household, on a building site, in a hazardous environment, inspection robots, life saving robots, etc.), autonomous robots, control and regulation in biological systems, the comparison of the `control architecture` of biological systems and autonomous robots, types of autonomous robots depending on the way in which they move (wheels and tracks, jumping robots, snake-like robots, flying robots, multiple-legged and two-legged robot locomotion, etc.), robot learning, “behaviour-based robotics” which represents a new way in which we control robots in an unstructured environment like ours, grasping and manipulation of objects, humanoid robots. A part of the course work is conducted through independent individual study and research work in the field of Non-Industrial Robotics.The research study requires the student`s active and constant interest in and reading of the primary scientific resources, the organization and conducting of experiments and statistical processing of data, numerical simulations, writing a paper in the specific scientific field relevant to the doctoral dissertation

Depending on the number of students the course can be carried out either through lectures, or by working with a mentor (tutorial work). Modes of teaching depend on the number of students and the chosen chapters (topics). Students are involved in the research study work.
