小型自律移動ロボット開発を通じた社会実装ロボット教育の実践

抄録

Since 1988, the Department of Electronic Control System Engineering at National Institute of Technology, Numazu College has conducted development of Micro Intelligent Robot System “MIRS” as a Project-Based Learning (PBL) into the curriculum for the education of system development. We are intended to provide a place of learning "process of system development" and "making education as a creative education" and "Proposal and management of competitions with social implementation" through the development of robot. In 2017, a new robot platform, which is provided for students at the beginning of this PBL program, was developed in order to improve technical factors of the robot system, and at the same time, increase students' motivation for learning. Since 2017 we have adopted social implementation education, and we are beginning to take the developed robot system to the work site and actually evaluate it based on the theme of "Robots in our lives". In this paper, we report about the Robots developed on the theme of "Robots in our college" that we tackled in 2018 and describe the effect of social implementation education. As a result, the team who got the developed robot on site and evaluated was a good result. We plan to promote social implementation education in the future.
