SKET 162 - Industrial Robotics ICredits: 3 Studies modern industrial robotic systems. Introduces the operation, use and safety of industrial robots. Discusses feedback mechanisms, actuators, sensors, power supplies, micro-controllers, P.C. computer control and programming. Emphasizes a hands-on approach to system analysis, critical thinking, solution to open-ended problems, computer usage, and teamwork. Credit may be earned in SKET 162 or ET 162 but not both.
Prerequisite(s): SKET 107 and SKMT 101 Corequisite(s): None Lecture Hours: 15 Lab Hours: 30 Meets MTA Requirement: None Pass/NoCredit: No
