Mobile Robotics
University of Bonn
Program Overview
In the programme, students learn the foundations to develop intelligent robots that can understand and model their surroundings, navigate the world, and act smartly. The study programme is strongly research-oriented and aims at educating the newest generation of top talents in robotics. It focuses on probabilistic and learning techniques enabling mobile robots to operate reliably in the real world, tackling perception, state estimation, modelling, action generation, planning, manipulation, and interaction with the world. The programme will teach students methods for robot perception, modelling, action generation, planning, and interaction with the world to act smartly and autonomously. It will combine competencies from engineering and computer science to build such systems and solve relevant problems of our society today – from sustainable technology and agricultural robotics to service robotic applications and autonomous vehicles. The programme links the engineering and computer science side of robotics with relevant societal applications, such as agricultural robotics and other fields such as autonomous cars. A key element is that such relevant applications operate at a high of excellence (supported, e.g. through PhenoRob). Furthermore, it tackles mobile systems, robots, and other vehicles that navigate and act autonomously without humans in the loop.
