SSG 415
Mechatronics and Robotics
2
Course Description
At the end of the course, students should be able to:
1. visualise how robots are embodiments of the Artificial intelligence they have learned.
2. comprehend how this combination of programming with electronics and
3. mechanical systems enable them to see how in real life these all work together to provide
solutions to problems encountered in daily life as distinct from the analytical approach of
seeing these differently.
