EL2222 Systems and Control in Practice 1.5 credits

The main content of the course is practical experience in working with input and output signal on real world systems. In the course embedded systems will be used where the control unit will be a platform such as the Raspberry Pi. The course will highlight aspects from several of the core courses in the program such as control, estimation and sensor data processing. The course will in this way give the students an overview and better understanding for how content from different courses fit together and the difficulties that comes with turning theory into practice. Furthermore, the student will be able to identify strengths and weaknesses within the subject areas and plan for how to acquire more knowledge where needed.

After completing the course, the students should:

• have experience from working with embedded systems close to the hardware
• have reflected on her/his own knowledge and learning in a system perspective and have planned for what new knowledge to acquire and how

Further goals of the course are to

• consitute a meeting place for students within the program Systems, Control and Robotics to strengthen their network and create a forum for collaboration
• create a context within which the students can practice programming

Students admitted to the masters program Systems, Control and Robotics
