Overview
We offer a Robotics and Autonomous Systems degree at the University of Surrey. Robotics is a multidisciplinary branch of engineering and science that deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing.
Features
- Robots must interact with people and objects, as well as challenging real-world environments. They must simulate human perception mechanisms, shared control, and natural multi-modal interfaces.
- Robots must also exhibit a high degree of autonomy and intelligence when performing highly complex tasks such as condition monitoring, prognostics and health management, and long-term persistent autonomy including validation and verification.
