Courses:Field Robot Summer Course

Why waste your summer vacation doing nothing at the beach, when you can have fun building an autonomous field robot together with fellow students at the University of Southern Denmark? Our summer course focuses on design and development of field robots for sustainable biological production. You will work in interdisciplinary project groups with students from design, mechanics, electronics, mechatronics, computer science, mathematics, physics etc. This is the wiki main page of the Field Robot Summer Course 2012, a part of it-summeruniversity.dk The official summer course website is at www.fieldrobot.dk/summer/
