| CSEB450 - Introduction to Robotics |
(3 credit hours) |
In this course, the students are introduced to robots and their building blocks. The emphasis of this course is on practical application of robots. The students build robots that follow the programmed tasks and are able to interact with other robots. Their activities may include: fetching an object; following a light source; finding the way through a maze; playing with other robots; overcoming an obstacle course. The course helps in developing a variety of skills among students, for example, persistence, open-minded problem- solving, creativity and team-work.
