IHA-4206 Mechatronics and Robot Programming, 5 cr

Additional information

Opintojaksolla IHA-4206 Fundamentals of Mobile Robots rajoitamme opiskelijoiden määrää seuraavien periaatteiden mukaan:

- Tutkinnon tavoitteellista suoritusaikaa oltava jäljellä
- DI-tutkinnossa kirjoilla opiskelijat
- Kv-opiskelijoista vain 2016 aloittaneet tutkintorakenteensa vuoksi

. In the course IHA-4206 Fundamentals of Mobile Robots the participation is limited according to the criteria:

Prioritisation:

1. The student's normative time to degree is not finished
2. Students studying in the Master's programme in Automation Engineering
3. Primarily International students who have started their studies in 2016
- students who have started in 2015 or earlier are in the thesis-writing stage of their studies according to the
normative timeline of the degree
- students who have started in 2017 cannot include Robotics in their degree
The course is only intended for degree students

Learning Outcomes

This is a hands-on course where the students learn about how to setup a mechatronic system, specially a robot with sensors, actuators and processing units. They learn how to use ROS and Matlab, connect sensors and actuators (drivers) to a control PC and collect data and visualize.

Content

Content Core content Complementary knowledge Specialist knowledge
1. ROS (Robot Operating System) on PC and RasPI, reading sensors, communcation, and data visulizing   Intro to ROS, Intro to communication (Ethernet, CAN, USB, SSH)   
2. Building Matlab/Simulink real-time environment, communication, connection to ROS     
3. Controling a Turtlebot, reading sensors, sending motor commands, robot network     
4. Hands on control of hydraulic and electric drives     
5. Exampular mechanism design  3D printing   

Instructions for students on how to achieve the learning outcomes

There will be more than 15 hands on cases from which to choose. Cases are performed in groups of two. Each group will need to complete at least 7 cases and fill in the report forms (one per case) which includes 2 questions regarding the case, and demonstrate at the end of each case. Extra bonus will be recieved when helping in documentation of cases and improving case instructions.

Assessment scale:

Numerical evaluation scale (0-5)
