Short term course on “Manually controlled robots and applications”
Introduction:
With fast developments in semiconductor, robotic technology, high performance power electronic devices and signal processors are getting commercialized regularly. Consequently the same are advancing very fast. So there is a necessity of updating knowledge with state-of-the-art development in these fields especially in the fields of ROBOTICS which is like implementation of all the devices, etc. This training program will help the participants to update their knowledge, and to target research in fields like artificial intelligence, autonomous and manual robots, embedded systems, power electronics, etc. Participants will be given an exposure to build robots with the help of various electronics and electrical components along with switching systems.
Course Objective:
The 24 hrs short term course deals with manually controlled robots which is specially designed for robotics enthusiasts of all disciplines from diploma and +2 (Science) institutes. The participants will be introduced to the fundamentals of robotics. The concepts that will be covered are
1. Introduction to robots and robotics
2. Why human needs robots?
3. Currents trends of robotics
4. Mechanical design
5. Degree of freedom
6. Stability of a robot
7. Practical demo of designing a robot
8. DPDT switch controlled robot
