The “INSEGNANTE (A Spotlight Series)” event, hosted by the IEEE Student Branch of St. Joseph’s College of Engineering in association with IEEE SJCE SB Robotics & Automation Society, captivated approximately 35 participants on April 13, 2024, with an engaging exploration into the Basics of Robotics. Under the direction of Mr. Sadeesh Kumar A., Assistant Professor in the Department of EEE at St. Joseph’s College of Engineering, the discussion covered a wide range of subjects, including the various categories of robots and the moral issues covered by the Laws of Robotics. After delving deeper, talks about the nuances of SCARA (Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm) robots and their many industrial applications came to a thoughtful investigation of path and trajectory planning, which is essential for the best possible robot navigation and task completion.
Participants were fully involved in the event, which encouraged a lively interchange of ideas and perspectives and, in the end, left them feeling motivated to learn more about the possibilities and wonders of robotics. The event not only provided a platform for learning but also acted as a catalyst for continued research and collaboration in the exciting field of robotics. All participants were given e-certificates.
