Course offering details

Instructors: Lasse Einig; Prof. Dr. Jianwei Zhang

Event type: Practical course/lab

Displayed in timetable as: Robotics -Üb

Hours per week: 1

Language of instruction: English

Min. | Max. participants: - | 32

Comments/contents:
The exercise deepens the content covered in the lecture (64-450) in order to sustainably impart the concepts. In order to synchronize the exercises to the progress of the lecture, the exercises will be irregularly interleaved with the practical exercises (64-452). The dates will be announced in the lecture and on the website.

Topics of the exercise are:


  • Coordinate systems
  • Homogeneous transformations
  • Robot description
  • Frame transformations
  • Inverse Kinematics of manipulators
  • Differential motion
  • Path planning and collision detection
  • Control systems

Learning objectives:
The students deepen the knowledge from the lecture by practially applying the theoretical concepts.

Didactic concept:
The assignments will be done at home by the students and collectively discussed during the exercise. The students will usually get two weeks for each assignment, depending on the complexity of the assignment. Required for successful participation are:


  • Regular presence in the exercises
  • At least 50% of the possible score
  • Presentation of the solutions


The solutions will be handed in as a group.
