Content
The module covers fundamentals of light propagation, optical components, and the physiology of human vision with relevance to technical applications. Students learn to model and optimize optical systems using specialized simulation software. Topics include light sources, sensors, optical measurement techniques, and the structured design of optomechatronic systems through systems engineering methods. Practical examples from vehicle lighting, LIDAR, and spectroscopy complement the module.
Learning Objectives
Students will acquire a deep understanding of the physical and technical principles of optomechatronic systems. They learn to confidently use optical simulation software, select appropriate materials and manufacturing technologies, and integrate light sources, sensors, and measurement instruments into complex systems. Additionally, they develop the ability to create innovative and practical optical solutions that combine technical and design requirements.
Course Structure
The module starts with theoretical introductions to physical fundamentals, optics, and human vision. This is followed by hands-on exercises in modeling and simulating optical systems with specialized software. Students analyze and evaluate systems in project work, incorporating examples from industry and research. The module concludes with a 90-minute written exam.
