Mobile robotics

Semester 2 · 47568 · Corso di laurea magistrale in Ingegneria Industriale Meccanica · 5CFU · EN


A mobile robot is an unmanned system that operates in unstructured and dynamic environments, with or without the oversight of a human. Applications of mobile robots include environmental monitoring; manufacturing logistics and production; search & rescue; construction; forestry management, agricultural monitoring and production; mining; marine measurement and monitoring; and aerospace operations. This course covers the fundamental principles of mobile robotics at an introductory level. The topics covered include: functional architecture of unmanned systems (electrical, mechanical and software); vehicle dynamics and modelling; common navigation sensors, state & disturbance estimation; low-level control; and trajectory generation. Laboratory exercises that use Matlab, Simulink and possibly ROS/Gazebo to control unmanned vehicles will be given.

Classroom lectures and laboratory exercises.

Obietifs formatifs
Knowledge and understanding: 1. Applying basic principles to a broad range of dynamic system models (such as those typically learned in the 1st cycle). 2. Defining sensing and controller requirements for unmanned vehicles that operate in different conditions. 3. Understanding factors that affect system performance and stability. 4. Use of state space techniques for designing controllers and observers. Applying knowledge and understanding: 5. Analyzing, developing and presenting control & navigation systems for applications that span multiple disciplines through laboratory exercises, which complement the lectures. Making judgements: 6. On the choice of analytical and numerical tools to use in the lab exercises. This may require you to integrate knowledge, handle complexity, and formulate judgements with incomplete data. Communication skills: 7. Laboratory reports will require you justify your solutions/conclusions concisely (in clear and simple language). Learning Skills: 8. Students will be required to develop a proficiency in Matlab, Simulink and possibly ROS/Gazebo with a few in-class examples, but mostly on their own. This is intended to help students develop the ability to study in a manner that is largely self-directed or autonomous.
