This UL @ Work Professional Diploma in Cognitive Robotics will introduce students to the foundational principles of robotic systems and the Machine Learning fundamentals that underpin those systems. Students on this Diploma will rapidly advance their knowledge of the state of the art in robot control, locomotion, perception and intervention.
Students will learn about robotic platforms, vehicles & sensors, robot control strategies, robot vision & perception, sensor fusion, robot manipulation as well as human machine interfaces and coordinated strategies for complex robotic challenges that necessitate a ‘system of systems’ approach to design.
The programme is specifically designed as a full online (or blended) programme, including video lectures and practical challenges to allow students to develop and apply their learning. The programme will be of interest to recent ICT, scientific or Engineering graduates who wish to further specialise in the field of robotics. The programme will also be of interest to technical professionals seeking to apply robotics techniques, platforms and services to development of new products and processes.
