Introduction to Cognitive Robotics

Organismoid Embodiment

Smart Materials

In this Module, you will be introduced to Cognitive Robotics and the basic building blocks needed to build a "thinking" robot.

The Human Nervous System

The Human Brain

The Brain's Hidden Elements

Nerve Cells

If you have to develop a cognitive robot, you have to understand the cognitive architecture of the brain itself. This Module will explore deep inside the brain, how it is structured and the function of each area of the brain.

Diploma in the Foundations of Cognitive Robotics - First Assessment

This assessment enables you to review your learning so you can determine your knowledge and understanding of Modules 1 to 2 of the following course:

• Diploma in the Foundations of Cognitive Robotics

The Hodgkin and Huxley Theorem

Developing New Models

Electroencephalography (EEG)

This Module discusses a few mathematical models that explain how a neuron action potential, or the neuron's firing of electrical signals, works within the neural network.

Psychological Theories of Intelligence

Theories of Artificial Intelligence

The Kuramoto Model

Child Robot Interaction

This Module discusses different approaches to the concept of intelligence, both from a psychological point of view and from a computer programmer's point of view.  It also discusses how to create an artificial cognitive network that mimics the neural networks found in nature.

Diploma in the Foundations of Cognitive Robotics - Second Assement

This assessment enables you to review your learning so you can determine your knowledge and understanding of Modules 3 to 4 of the following course:

• Diploma in the Foundations of Cognitive Robotics

Diploma in the Foundations of Cognitive Robotics – Course Assessment

In this free online course, learn what you need to develop a 'thinking' robot with its own artificial neural network.

Diploma in the Foundations of Cognitive Robotics

At the beginning of robotics, industrial robots were used to aid in mass production. Then they were engineered to perform tasks requiring either high precision or high force transmission. Today, a new kind of robot is emerging: one that does not need to meet the demand for high precision or high power but for the understanding of the human mind and our needs.
