Propuesta Educativa Basada en Proyectos Prácticos de Robótica Avanzada sobre Plataforma Jetson TX1 para Estudiantes de Grado y Posgrado

His paper describes a proposal for an advanced robotics course based on practical projects and implemented on an embedded Nvidia Jetson Tegra X1 computer aimed at advanced or postgraduate students. The program uses state-of-the-art sensors and integrated computers for mobile robotics. These components are integrated into a mobile development platform. The program has three distinctive features: (1) it focuses on robotics software systems: students design and build robotics software into real-world applications, without being distracted by hardware problems; (2) promotes project-based learning: students learn through weekly project assignments and a final course challenge; (3) learning is implemented collaboratively: students learn the basic concepts of collaboration and technical communication in conferences and work as a team to design and implement their software systems. The program is based on the robotics course developed by Professor John Seng and his team at the California State Polytechnic. We also briefly discuss future directions and opportunities.
