MTM.LKO (P231-0008) Mechatronics, Master, ASPO 01.04.2020 , semester 1, mandatory course
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).
105 class hours (= 78.75 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 210 hours (equivalent to 7 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 131.25 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
MTM.PDT Particle Measurement and Phase Doppler Technology

Learning outcomes:
In this module, students will gain insight into selected applications of laser measurement technology, as well as into the structured process of product development using design methodology.
After successfully completing this course, students will be able to model the structure of complex technical systems and analyze their function. They will have mastered the overall process of integrated product development and will be able to structure it in its essential phases by adapting general planning and design methods to mechatronic products.
In addition, students will have in-depth knowledge about the physical working principles of lasers and will be able to work safely with laser equipment. This will enable students to use these methods in R&D projects or for their Master thesis.

[updated 01.10.2020]
Teaching methods/Media:
In this course there will be introductory lectures in the fields of "Design Methodology" and "Laser Measurement Technology" with integrated group exercises. After a few weeks, the lectures culminate in a project in which a laser measurement technology system is developed, built and tested in independent teams according to the rules of design methodology.
As an exam, the developed systems will be presented and discussed in presentations.
