題目:「Robotics to Rural」
講師: Prof. S.K. Saha (Naren Gupta Chair Professor, Mechatronics Lab. & Programme for Autonomous Robotics Lab., IIT Delhi, INDIA)
The presentation will cover the robotics research at IIT Delhi in two different laboratories, namely, Mechatronics Laboratory which Prof. Saha started in 2001, and the Programme for Autonomous Robotics Laboratory (a sponsored inter-disciplinary activity by three departments) started in 2010. The presentation will include a vision-based guidance of an industrial robot, an immersive environment for the tele-operation of an industrial robot, peg in tube operation using a force control algorithm, etc. The speaker will also explain the development of a truck simulator and a haptics device for medical simulation. Prof. Saha will then introduce a concept called RoCK-BEE (Robotics Competition Knowledge-based Education in Engineering). It is to encourage the students of engineering to take part in robotic competitions, e.g., ABU Robocon, to enjoy not only the competition but also the learning of the subject in a fun and effective way. It will be shown in the later part of his presentation that how the knowledge of robotics can be applied for the design optimization of many devices and processes used by the rural people, e.g., a carpet loom or a machine to clean it. This aspect is pursued by Prof. Saha under the banner called MuDRA or Multibody Dynamics for Rural Applications.**
