Robotics

The purpose of this course is an introduction to robotics and specially in the analysis and control of industrial robotic manipulators.

Objectives

This course aims to: (A) to introduce students to the basic concepts and themes of Robotics, especially for the analysis and control of industrial robots, which are used to perform multi-tasks in an industrial work. (B) To understand the implications and applications of industrial robots in the field of product design and systems. After the completion of the course the student will develop the necessary academic skills to understand robotics and the practical skills which are necessary for subsequent studies.

Prerequisites

None
