This course provides a comprehensive coverage of contemporary intelligent systems, with robots serving as a major example of the technology. Thanks to the leading research being undertaken in the School, students will gain a solid understanding of the foundations of this technology, exploring areas including: The principles by which sensed data are converted into useful information The practical aspects of developing intelligent and robotic systems Biologically-inspired robots Biometrics Computational intelligence Robotics requires a well-developed knowledge of areas ranging from computer science and artificial intelligence, to engineering and neuroscience, in order to produce hardware which can sense and manipulate the real world. This field has allowed for the development of everything from satellites and submarines, to racecars and robots. The MSc Intelligent Systems and Robotics is delivered by the team of researchers, with expertise spanning the entire range of intelligent systems and experience of developing robots intended for land, under water and in the air. Research carried out by the team has resulted in appearance in the Robot Soccer World Cup final, an autonomous robot fish in the London Aquarium, and a self-programming computer vision system.
