Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Michael Kleer
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Michael Kleer

Learning outcomes:
Students will be able to demonstrate and apply the most important methods for describing and calculating robot systems. They will be able to independently explain and calculate the interaction of robot systems with several coordinate systems and the associated coordinate transformations in detail. In addition, students will be able to independently calculate the forward and inverse kinematics of typical industrial robots and solve path and trajectory planning tasks.
