Course details

Who should do this course?
  • For those interested in robotics, electronics and electro-mechanical devices such as 3D printers (which really is a type of robot)
What are the course deliverables?
  • Simple machines (which all come into play in surprising ways you probably haven't seen before)
  • Designing an arm robot
  • The toggle mechanism (again, comes into play in a ridiculous number of surprising ways you probably haven't seen before)
  • harmonic drives, cycloidal drives, epicyclic drives, traction drives
  • strength of materials & construction challenge
  • case study: design challenges of a deep-submarine, remotely operated vehicle
  • hydraulics & pneumatics (including building your own)
  • air & hydraulic muscles, muscle wire
  • servos (speed, pressure, force, position, etc...)
  • DC motors, BLDC motors, BLDC servo motors, stepper motors, AC motors, AC servo motors, single and three phase power, electrical generation
  • frequency drives, PWM AC signal generation
  • regenerative / rheostatic / dynamic braking, looking at electric vehicle design and locomotive design
  • counter-force systems you will encounter in industrial robots
  • safety around robot systems, in industry and hobby
  • robot designs: articulated arm, gantry, spine, collaborative
  • case study: combat robots

More about this course
  • This series of "Robotics: Learn by building" modules has an end-goal focus on the diverse field of robotics
  • In this module II leartner further developed learner's knowledge and skills to include digital electronics and practice skills on real-life digital components
  • In this third course learner will learn physics principles (from simple to very complex) with a specific goal of understanding and even designing learner's own drive systems for robots
