This course provides essential knowledge of electronics related to various sensor systems in mechatronics, with a particular focus on those used in prototypes developed in GEMS Erasmus+ project. By the end of the course, students will be equipped to develop sensor systems and applications for embedded systems.
It will provide participants with 3 ECTS and teachers from the University of Porto will also collaborate.
The course will have an online component on June 30th and July 1st and in person component at the University of Alcala from July 6th to 10th.
Prerequisites
- Fundamental analogue and digital electronics
- Preliminary microcontroller programming experience
Content and Methodology
The methodology includes online (synchronous) and face to face lectures. Also asynchronous material, videos and evaluation tests (in EdX of the University of Alcalá), are going to support students’ formation. Practical sessions about programming and hardware implementation related to sensorial systems will take place at the Electronics Department labs at UAH.
