Automatic control is everywhere, usually embedded in devices and applications, therefore it is very obvious when a failure occurs. Good design - whether it is the flight control system of an aircraft, the production control system in a tile plant, the stabilisation of a vehicle in adverse conditions or the monitoring system of a robotic surgical assistant, to name a few representative applications - provides operational safety, high dynamic and static performance and, ultimately, an overall benefit from a variety of perspectives: energy savings, sustainable development, reduced pollution, safety, etc.
The implementation of control systems is based on real-time, embedded and miniaturised computer systems, with the current trend towards autonomy and reduced use of resources. The use of robots and handling equipment, not only in the automotive industry but also in many other industries, such as surgery or remote sensing, requires specific training in automation, robotics, computer vision and industrial computing.
Objectives
The main objective of these Master's studies is to train specialists in these subjects so that they are capable of dealing with the design, implementation, operation and maintenance of automatic systems for the supervision, control, handling and management of production processes in which high performance dynamic behaviour, energy savings, pollution reduction or efficiency and safety are required.
This scientific and technological field, which is continuously evolving and progressing, also needs young researchers to be trained so they are capable of facing the new industrial challenges.
