Further Education

RoboMind is an ideal tool to introduce logic, computer science and robotics in order to conquer challenges that are encountered in society.

Without special prerequisites students can get started with RoboMind in any technology related lab-session. It will familiarize you with formalization of specifications and how machines can perform complex tasks with limited perceptions.

In case you really want to go for it, you can try to prove behaviors for simple programs, make universal Turing machines or analyze the complexity of your algorithms.

Projects can typically be done in seven weeks, where you first learn the basics of programming and then work out a chosen challenge. Students are quickly up and running with the provided Example programs and online documentation.

RoboMind Example Projects

The following challenges are example projects that students could dive into. More challenges come available when a RoboMind Educational Software Licence is purchased.

	Getting started This activity uses RoboMind, a robot simulation environment, to present the fundamental concepts of robotics.  No prior experience with Robotics is necessary!  There is some simple programming involved, but don't be afraid to give it a try even if you have never programmed before.  The activity instructions will show you everything you need to know! In this activity, you will: Become familiar with RoboMind, a robot simulation environment Command a robot to move where you want it to go Teach the robot to sense its surroundings, so it doesn't crash Make the robot perform a simple task for you (pick up and move an object) Downloads: Challenge description [PDF]
	RoboMind Line following challenge In this activity you will use RoboMind, a robot simulation environment, to solve several "line follower" tasks.  Robotics competitions often include line follower challenges, where your robot must follow a line on the floor.  This activity is a good introduction to the programming tasks one might face as part of a robotics club or team, preparing for competition! In this activity, you will: Become familiar with RoboMind, a robot simulation environment Program the robot to solve several different line following tasks Develop an understanding of algorithms, and turn your algorithms into code for your robot Downloads: Challenge description [PDF], RoboMind line follow maps [ZIP]
	RoboMind Maze challenge In this activity you will use RoboMind, a robot simulation environment, to solve simply connected mazes.  A simply connected maze is a maze has no loops, and no inaccessible areas.  Robotics competitions often include maze solving challenges.  This activity is a good introduction to the programming tasks one might face as part of a robotics club or team, preparing for competition!  Besides, after completing this activity, you'll never again have to worry about being hopelessly lost in a maze.In this activity, you will: Become familiar with RoboMind, a robot simulation environment Program the robot to solve a simply connected maze Develop an understanding of maze algorithms, and turn your algorithms into code for your robot Downloads: Challenge description [PDF], RoboMind maze maps [ZIP]
