ECE5306

Mechanoinformatics 2 ( 6 points, SCA Band 2, 0.125 EFTSL)

Postgraduate
(ENG)

Leader: R A Russell

Offered:
Clayton Second semester 2005 (Day)

Synopsis: Many modern computer applications involve monitoring and control of electromechanical systems rather than traditional data processing tasks. Using robotic systems as a model the computer interfacing of a wide range of sensors and actuators will be considered. The course will also consider the mechanical design of robotic devices, the capabilities and operating principles of a wide variety of sensors and actuators, and programming paradigms/algorithms applicable to robotic devices will be assessed.

Assessment: Examination (3 hours): 70% + Laboratory and assignment work: 30%

Contact Hours: 26 lectures, 26 hours of practice classes and laboratory classes

Prohibitions: ECE4306
