Course detail

Measurement Technique

FSI-XMT-KAcad. year: 2012/2013

The course introduces the students to the principles of computer-supported measurement systems. Possible errors in measurements performed by these systems, their corrections and methods of interpretation of the obtained data are explained.

Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

6

Mode of study

Guarantor

doc. Dr. Ing. Daniel Prostredník, CSc.

Department

Institute of Production Machines, Systems and Robotics (ÚVSSR)

Learning outcomes of the course unit

After the course, the students are able to design simple measurement systems made of standard components, for example for measurements of length, temperature, location etc., to evaluate the obtained data and to analyze the possible faults of the measurement chain.

Prerequisites

Students are expected to have basic knowledge of metrology, electrotechnics and PC skills.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Course-unit credit is conditioned by 100% attendance at laboratory practicals and approved reports. Examination has a written and an oral part and tests student’s knowledge and his/her ability to apply it in practice.

Course curriculum

Not applicable.

Work placements

Not applicable.

Aims

The objective of the course is to introduce the students to the computer-supported measurement systems.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Seminars are compulsory, attendance is monitored. Absence can be compensated on agreement with the teacher.

Recommended optional programme components

Not applicable.

Prerequisites and corequisites
