MULTI‐TEACHING
Physics, Coding&Project Management atthe same time!
MULTI‐LEVEL
Whatever yourlevel in coding, you can programNAO
MULTI‐USES
Lectures assistant, Lab sessionstool, projects, etc…• Mechanical Engineering:
– Solidworksfiles ofthe left armand rightleg to discover
NAO’sinternal conception
– Explain the concept of Torque and the
relationship between torque, power and energy
• Electronics:
– Control&Automatismusing ourmotion APIs or Choregraphe
– Telepathe to see sensors andmotors actions(current variationsfor
instance)
• NAO’s architecture:
– Teach how a robotis built usingNAO’s example:mechanical parts,
communication buses,firmware and software framework
Engineering Education withNAO• Programming
– Teach basic programming principles(theNAO‐turtle programming) or advanced topics
(embedded,task planning and scheduling,real‐time)
• Vision & audio processing:
– Calculate the distance of a human according the size ofthe face
– Create a line followermodule
– Extractthe BPM andmakeNao dance in rhythm
Computer Sciences withNAO‐ Game theory in the fields of politicalscience,social psychology,
etc.
‐ Teach variousforms ofstrategies, equilibriumor games withNAO asthe
animator
‐ Human‐robotinteraction:
‐ How to express body emotions?
‐ How to interact with a human?
‐ How to teach ethicsto a robot?
Social Sciences withNAO• Basic principles of physics
– Lightspectrum: useNAO’s camera to see “invisible” lights
– Waves:teach the concepts of diffraction and reflection of ultrasounds waves
• Mathematics:
– Fromtrigonometry (Sound localization)to vector calculus and Jacobianmatrix (joint control)
– Show interpolationsin action inside Choregraphe and teach the equations behind.
– Game theory : ask yourstudentsto implement algorithms(Nash
equilibriumforinstance) into 2 (ormore)NAOs and see the results of
the different game theories
