Projecto de Sistemas Mecatrónicos

Objectives

Students should be able integrate the knowledge and skills acquired during the course for the analysis and problem solving of an engineering problem in the area of control, automation, robotics, or industrial informatics.

Syllabus

Several engineering problems are proposed for individual or group resolution. Students will make an in-depth study of the proposed problem, obtaining information from bibliographic sources and reviewing the state-of-the-art on the subject. Students should submit a proposal to solve the proposed problem, the solution of which will involve the application of technical solutions related to the areas of control, automation, robotics, or industrial informatics.
