Abstract

In this paper, we present a proposal for a practical course on mobile robots at undergraduate level in engineering programs. The aim is to complement the theoretical concepts acquired in mechatronics, electronics and computer science in a practical manner with hand-on- experience with real robotic applications. The proposal is based on the lessons learned from robotic competitions and final year projects of student at Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP). The projects comprise: i) a mobile robot for a beach cleaning competition, ii) an improved version of the cleaning robot for an inventions contest, and iii) a mine detecting mobile robot. As a result, the products of these practical developments are reflected in functional prototypes that serve as research platforms, patents generation, research papers, and undergraduate theses, along with recognition at national and international level. The results and lesson learned from these case studies are presented and discussed for the mobile robots course proposal.

移动机器人开发:机器人竞赛和课程项目的案例研究

在本文中，我们提出了在工程专业本科阶段开设移动机器人实践课程的建议。其目的是补充在机电一体化，电子学和计算机科学中获得的理论概念，以实际的方式与实际机器人应用的实践经验。该提案基于机器人竞赛和Pontificia university Católica del Perú (PUCP)学生的最后一年项目的经验教训。项目包括:i)清洁沙滩比赛的移动机器人，ii)发明比赛的改进版清洁机器人，以及iii)探测地雷的移动机器人。因此，这些实际发展的产品反映在功能原型中，作为研究平台，专利生成，研究论文和本科论文，以及在国家和国际层面的认可。这些案例研究的结果和经验教训被提出并讨论为移动机器人课程建议。
