After ECE6188

No unit lists ECE6188 as a prerequisite in the 2027 handbook.

Enrolment rules

You must be enrolled in the Engineering PhD program. Students enrolled in another PhD program may seek permission from the Faculty of Engineering. The unit assumes you have the necessary foundational knowledge equivalent to ECE2071.

Overview

Intelligent robotics combines artificial perception, strategic reasoning and robotic action in potentially unstructured and time-varying environments to accomplish useful physical tasks. This unit provides an advanced survey of the fundamentals and recent research underpinning the above capabilities, including modelling, machine perception, mapping, path planning, localisation, control, artificial intelligence methodologies and application domains.  As part of the unit, you will learn to conduct graduate-level research in intelligent robotics.

Offerings in 2027

The 2027 handbook lists no offerings for ECE6188.

Learning outcomes

When you finish this unit, you should be able to:

  1. 1

    Analyse the current state of the art in terms of component design, sensing/actuation and algorithms required to develop an intelligent robot.

  2. 2

    Critically appraise robot systems and research outputs developed by others.

  3. 3

    Independently formulate a research problem, generate a solution and corresponding validation plan, apply the validation plan and describe the research, by completing a graduate-level research project in the field of advanced intelligent robotics.
