This course provides students with a complete overview of the field of robotics from its conception, to current state-of-the-art, and furthermore, to its future developments. Emphasis is placed on the different components that make up a robotic system and how each is necessary for the advancement of autonomy. Both types of navigation, behavior-based and model-based, are explained in depth using examples from past and current research efforts. Finally, a thorough review of the different applications for robotics is given, including industrial, home, hospital, flying, underwater, space, military, and social robots, among others.
Electronics Engineering Technologists have just the right spark to keep technology operations running smoothly. They assist with the development, testing, and production of such things as circuit boards, wireless phones, PDAs, medical equipment, and control systems.
If you think you would like to create your own spark consider TBI’s Electronics Engineering Technology Program.
