Autonomous robot dogs, drones and racing cars
At the D-ITET Centre for Project-based Learning, students combine their technical knowledge with practical experience to work on energy-efficient smart sensors and embedded systems that are used, for example, in machines, household appliances or medical instruments.
The video presents three of these projects: autonomous racing, autonomous drones and robotic dogs. These projects are not only a good learning experience for the students, but can also be applied in practice, for example to support the visually impaired or to reach places that are difficult for humans to access during natural disasters.
