SWARM ROBOTICS:

Robotics has come long way. Especially for mobile robots in the past, they were controlled by heavy, large and expensive systems that would not be carried and had to be link via cables. Today, however we can build small robots with numerous actuators and sensors that are control by inexpensive, small and light embedded computer system that are carried on-board. Also with the invent of cheaper wireless modules it has now become possible for multiple robots to communicate with each other and do a particular task also known as Swarm Robotics
Robosoft Systems brings to you Swarm Robotics an intermediate robotics workshop designed & manufactured by Robosoft Systems . This workshop presents a unique combination of mobile robots, embedded system design and software programming. The main focus of this workshop is to introduce to the students various methods of communication that can be used to transfer data between multiple machines from based IR transceivers to high end 2.4 GHz frequency hopping based RF modules

Duration:

It’s a two day workshop. In Swarm Robotics , Engineering students who want opportunities to extend beyond learning theoretical concepts so as to transfer this knowledge into practical Robotics.

Who Should Attend?

Engineering students who want to gain an insight into autonomous robotics and wireless communication but don’t know where to start from. This workshop will cover everything from development of autonomous robots , wireless communication of a robot with a PC to wireless communication of multiple robots with each other to understand there surrounding environment cumulatively and do tasks together .

Prerequisites:

Interest in Robotics
Basic Digital design knowledge
Basic C language knowledge

Skills Gained:

After completing this workshop, you will be able to:

Design autonomous robots using various techniques
Target and optimize 8 bit microcontrollers by using Embedded C
