Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of this course, students will be able to: Adopt an applied scientific approach - Innovate - Implement solutions - Plan and carry out projects in engineering - Work in and lead a team - Master scientific and technical communication - Be a critical, reflexive and independent professional. Design a practical application (for the fields of automation, robotics, human-computer interface, ...), a complete system (from the choice of components defining the hardware and software developed platform), or library components (operators or drivers), using existing off-the-shelf components (COTS, sensors/actuators, communication), programmable (microprocessors) and reconfigurable architectures (FPGA), operating systems (Linux and Android), while using varied communication mechanisms, advanced programming mechanisms and techniques, design tools and development platforms to produce an innovative implementation result. Put into practice the acquired knowledge in the use of microprocessors and reconfigurable architectures, languages (C / C ++, Java, Python, VHDL), programming techniques (threads, interrupts, timers, counters), interfacing techniques and communications protocols (I2C, CAN, RS232, ZigBee, Bluetooth, WIFI, ..). To practice development methodologies, validation and project management techniques. Aspects of management, tasks’ organization, state of the art analysis and integration of the various parts of sub-projects and projects (portfolio). (Organization of tasks, the study stresses and the creation of mechanisms of testing and validation). Master the configuration and interfacing of existing component (communication, protocols, data exchange, datasheet and technical data understanding). Assess the technical constraints and propose innovative solutions (communicate, justify, compare, demonstrate, validate, analysis of results). Support a draft, present the results and demonstrate the contributions in oral form as well as on a technical report (state of the art, technical, specifications, methods, equipment to use, organization of tasks, and the creation tests of validation mechanisms and analysis of results,…).
