Mechatronic System Design 2

Course aim

To provide training in rigorously applying mechatronic design principles to the development of a robotic system, incorporating the use of advanced control, signal processing, and machine learning algorithms.

Course content

This course is based on a major design project, in the context of mobile robotics. Building on the same integrated design framework in Mechatronic System Design 1, the project additionally focuses on wheeled mobile robots with nonholonomic dynamics, inertial navigation (including localisation and pose estimation by inertial sensing) and motion control. Algorithms covered include Bayesian filtering, sensor fusion, and visual servoing. Compared to Mechatronic System Design 1, this course focuses more on algorithms.
