Lärandemål (är i kraft 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
After completing the course, a student can
1. explain the working principle of major micro- and nano robotic systems for different applications;
2. understand the physics of micro- and nano scale locomotion and interaction;
3. choose micro- and nano actuation techniques;
4. apply micro- and nano robotic manipulation systems for certain applications;
5. program and control micro- and nano robotic systems and
6. analyze and evaluate specific micro- and nano robotic implementations.
Innehåll (är i kraft 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
This course teaches micro- and nanorobotics, an interdisciplinary topic on miniaturized robots that works with microscopic objects or the robots have miniaturized bodies. The content includes: physics at micro- and nano scale, sensing and actuation for micro- and nanorobotics, locomotion and energy, manipulation at micro- and nano scale, perception and automation, and selected case studies on bio-manipulation, microassembly, miniaturized medical robot, microrobotic scientific tool, and/or exploration robots. A list of project topics will be offered to student groups for in-depth study of selected topics.
Metoder, arbetssätt och bedömningsgrunder (är i kraft 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
The student can complete the course in different ways. The final grade will be based on the total points of the learning activities the student participates, including learning diary, home assignments, and group project work including hands-on sessions. It is not mandatory that the student should participate any or all the learning activities.
