此課程與喬治亞大學(University of Georgia)的 Dr. Chi Thai 跨國連合授課。

The course goal is to provide students with an advanced practicum in Embedded Robotics wherein the students will learn about the programming of embedded controllers, the interfacing of sensors, the actuation of servo motors, inter-computer serial communications (RS-232 and ZigBee), and the control of autonomous as well as remotely piloted systems. The student will be programming using a high-level integrated environment called RoboPlus, and also will be practicing lower-level programming using the C/C++ language. These concepts and methodologies will be demonstrated in class with sample codes and the students can expand on these ideas further with a series of robotic projects (of increasing complexity) throughout the semester such as car robots, simple bipedal robots (7-8 degrees of freedom) and humanoid robots (18 degrees of freedom). Possible projects can be about master-save robots, search and rescue robot teams, mobile wireless sensor networks, humanoid robot balance control, intruder (motion) detection, image recognition and object tracking, and humanoid robot negotiating stairs with varying tread depths. Upon completion of this course, students should have an integrated hardware/software understanding of embedded robotic systems whether they would be autonomous or remotely piloted.
