On this two-week course from Luleå University of Technology, you’ll develop a working knowledge of the use of robotics, gaining essential practical skills for robotic applications.
Delving into the fundamentals of robotics, you’ll be equipped with the basics of 3D modelling, object detection, computer vision, and image processing.
You’ll discover examples and get hands-on experience in developing engaging and useful robotics applications. The skills you gain in this course will help you understand how to develop robotic tools in application across various sectors.
You’ll learn about different sensing modalities such as RGB sensors, thermal, and 3D lidars that provide diverse types of data for robotic application development.
In coordination with sensing, you’ll also learn about basic perception tasks that can be introduced in robotics applications, such as object detection. With this knowledge, you’ll be able to reflect on these capabilities and how to use them in practice.
Through various example applications, you’ll learn how to demonstrate the use of robotic tools ensuring you finish the course with the practical knowledge to use in your context.
With a long history of excellent research in robotics, control engineering, applied and generative AI, and other technological fields, Luleå University of Technology is ideally situated to offer this course.
You’ll also benefit from the guidance of a headteacher who has years of experience in robotics training and research, including active roles on several leading robotics research groups.
Welcome to this course where you will be introduced to application of robotic tools.
During this week you shall be introduced to the fundamentals of representing the position and orientation of a robot in two dimensional and three-dimensional world space. In addition to that, an introduction to coordinate.
