Summer School of Robotics

28 June to 12 July 2008

Organized in cooperation with the BEST - see the official website of the BEST summer course

The activities labeled LogoBESTsmall.png are recommended for the participants of the BEST summer course. All the activities except the laboratory workshops are open to the public.

Following topics/presentations are confirmed for now:

  • prof. Kelemen (Silesian University in Opava, CZ):

History of the word Robot and the cultural context of robotics.

  • prof. Gruhler (Fachhochschule Heilbronn, DE):

Basics of DSP on AVR processors (hands-on tutorial).

  • assoc. prof. Hubinsky (FEI STU, SK):

History of the robotics.

Illustrated lecture about the history of the robotics - from ancient
inventions to the latest research projects. Information about
technical and also non-technical aspects of the robotics evolution.
  • assoc. prof. Hubinsky (FEI STU, SK)

Kinematics of mobile robots.

Basic types of the mobile robot kinematics - differential drive,
tricycle, Ackermann steering, omnidirectional wheels, synchronous
drives  - basic structures, coordinate transformations, technical solutions.
  • RNDr. Lucny (MicroStep-MIS, SK)

Lecture "Subsumption: Brooks' approach to robotics"

We introduce subsumption as simplified method how to mimics biological
evolution for purposes of robot construction. Features of biological 
creatures as their situatedness in particular environment and thinkering 
(bricolage) during their evolution are used as important insiration. 
  • RNDr. Lucny (MicroStep-MIS, SK)

Tutotial "How to follow a ping-pong ball"

We introduce step-by-step necessary methods of image processing 
and behavior control for development of a simple robot which follow 
a ping-pong ball. In this way we demonstrate several important 
principles on a simple example.
  • Mgr. Pavel Petrovič, PhD. (FMFI UK, SK)

Bayesian Robot Programming and Probabilistic Robotics.

  • Mgr. Pavel Petrovič, PhD. (FMFI UK, SK)

Selected topics from Evolutionary Algorithms I, II

  • Ing. Balogh (Robotika.SK)

Basic operation with a Boe-Bot mobile robot (practical workshop).
