CEN 252 - Advanced Robotics



7.0 Credits
Advanced training in robotics systems. Includes programming a microcontroller in a C-type language to read sensors and control outputs, and troubleshooting software and hardware using functional testing. A robotics system project is required. Prerequisite: CEN 163  and CEN 251  or training in digital and basic microprocessor systems.

Course Objectives
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

  1. Write well documented code to control a robot. [COMMUNICATE]
  2. Interpret programs to describe the operation of a robot. [REASON]
  3. Identify parts and components and describe their function in the system. [REASON]
  4. Write functional test programs for a robotic system. [REASON]
  5. Troubleshoot a complex system and document the process. [REASON]
  6. Read microcontroller data sheets to access registers in the microcontroller. [REASON]
  7. Add new sensors and output devices to the robot and reprogram the microcontroller accordingly. [REASON]
