Introduction to Mobile Robotics - SS 2013

News

Question & Answer Session at 08/29, 11:00h
There will be a question & answer session Thursday, 08/29, at 11:00 o'clock in our usual room (building 51, room 00 034). In this session, any questions that you have regarding the robotics exam will be answered. So please prepare questions. If you want, you can also send your questions to mobilerobotics@informatik.uni-freiburg.de in advance.

Introduction to Mobile Robotics (engl.) - Autonomous Mobile Systems

This course will introduce basic concepts and techniques used within the field of mobile robotics. We analyze the fundamental challenges for autonomous intelligent systems and present the state of the art solutions. Among other topics, we will discuss:
  • Sensors,
  • Kinematics,
  • Path planning,
  • Vehicle localization,
  • Map building,
  • SLAM,
  • Exploration of unknown terrain



Exercises

Solving and submitting the exercise sheets is recommended but not mandatory to be admitted to the final exam. There are no bonus points.

The exercises should be solved in groups of two students. Submit a single tar/zip file with all codes, scripts and a single pdf with all answers (programs and figures). In general, assignments will be published on Tuesday and have to be submitted the following Monday before class. Submit programming exercises via email to mobilerobotics@informatik.uni-freiburg.de.
