The purpose of the course is to provide basic knowledge in industrial robotics where the theory is applied within architectural design processes. The course aims to provide an understanding of how robotics can be used for the production and maintenance of the built environment, as well as increase the ability to translate CAD models into robot programs for the production and manipulation of physical media, and how robots can contribute to the design process and sustainability.

The course presents basic aspects of robotics for use in design processes and principally focuses on three problem areas: (1) modeling of robots, (2) programming and simulation of robots, and (3) designing robotic systems, for example focused on manufacturing systems with robots. The problem areas are defined more specifically before each course. Within the problem areas, as a rule, the following parts will be studied: properties and modes of operation with special emphasis on architectural use, programming and methods for calibration and simulation, modeling and analysis of robot structures, the robot's use in industry with adaptations and integration to processes, grips and tools, security, and peripherals. The course includes the following teaching elements:
Grading scale: UG - (U, G) - (Fail, Pass)
Assessment: Approved project and exercise assignments as well as mandatory attendance at briefings.
The examiner, in consultation with Disability Support Services, may deviate from the regular form of examination in order to provide a permanently disabled student with a form of examination equivalent to that of a student without a disability.
