Introduction
Robot sensors and vision sensors are essential in robot systems. Therefore, it is important to learn classification, characteristics, features and working principles of robot sensors and applications of vision sensors. The objective of this course is to familiarize the participating individuals with understanding of robot sensors basics, vision sensors, estimation using vision sensors, and Kalman filter and multi-sensor fusion. Robotic sensing technologies and sensors can be used to estimate a robot’s internal condition and to perceive its external environment. The measurements from sensors can also be used to control the motion and behavior of the robot. Characteristics and working principles of main internal and external sensors will be discussed. Vision sensors and estimation methods will be highlighted. Multi-sensor fusion will also be discussed.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Computer Control and Automation
- FlexiMasters
in Computer Control and Automation
Upon completion, learners should:
1. Understand classification, characteristics, features and working principles of main internal and external sensors;
2. Able to explain the modelling, calibration, and application scenarios of vision sensors;
3. Able to explain essential matrix and homography matrix techniques;
4. Analyze structure from motion and pose reconstruction using essential matrix and homography matrix techniques and;
5. Able to design estimators based on Kalman filter techniques for sensor fusion.
