Content

This seminar covers varying current advanced topics in robotics with a special focus on mobile robotics. Topics are, for instance, robot kinematics, modern probabilistic methods of navigation and self-localization, mapping, path planning with moving obstacles, robot formations, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), visual self-localization, and sensor fusion with different sensors. In contrast to the proseminar offered for bachelor students in this thematica area, the topics, algorithms and math/physics descriptions in this master seminar are more demanding, and the treatment is more in-depth.
Objectives

Students are able to scientifically analyse a topic from the field of robotics (with a special focus on mobile robots), and they can present it and elaborate on it in a paper.
