Mechanical & Industrial Engrg 697R - ST-Biorobotics

This seminar-style course focuses on robotic technology that replaces, works with, or functions as a biological system. The course will look at the physiology and movement of humans and other animals and its application in state-of-the-art robotic systems. In particular, this course will cover the sensors, actuators, and control structures used to develop these mechatronic devices. Topics include rehabilitation robotics, haptics, surgical devices, prostheses, orthoses, brain-machine interfaces and biomimetic devices.

Open to Graduate students only.
