CpE 360 (Robot Dynamics and Control) a.k.a. CpE 460 is a course
offered at the University of Bridgeport every year in the fall under the
guidance of Professor Tarek
Sobh who is also the
director of the RISC
(Robotics, Intelligent Sensing
and Control) laboratory here at the University of Bridgeport.
I took this course in Fall 1999 and we covered topics including Robot
Kinematics, Control and Mechanics. Besides the classroom knowledge, we
were given the opportunity to work with actual robots in the school's
Robitics Lab (see picture alongside). The school owns one Mitsubishi
MoveMaster-EX (which I used in my project), a number of SIR robots and
some other smaller manipulators.
This page describes what I worked on as my project. Other projects
included Andrew Rosca's Revival which is a
function library (built in C) for the SIR-1 robot. A famous project from
previous years is the
Formula-one tire changing robot which was
built by
Raul Mihali
and
Dr. Sobh himself.
