Intelligent Interactive Systems (5 hp, 7.5 hp discontinued)
This course will provide an overview of computational techniques for intelligent, embodied interactive systems, including approaches for perception (e.g., vision and other modalities of perception), learning and interaction abilities. The course will involve computer vision techniques, behaviour generation/control and machine learning-based approaches that can be used to analyse and adapt to humans interacting with embodied machines.
Human-Robot Interaction (5/10 hp)
This course will provide an overview of the science and technology of human-robot interaction; theories and methods for the design and evaluation of robots interacting with human users; fundamentals of verbal and non-verbal communication for situated interaction with physical robots.
