Mobile Robots: A Shared Course Between TU Freiberg and NORDAKADEMIE

According to Statista Market Insights [1] the turnover on robotics has almost doubled between 2016 and 2024. The largest factor is the area of service robotics, which shows the increased usage of robots in many different areas like farming, logistics, or medicine. This is facilitated by different sizes and forms

Can you feel the ALU? - Students compare the simulated and the real world in digital electronics

How does simulation differ from reality? Students at the NORDAKADEMIE were able to experience this by building an ALU both in a software simulation and from real electrical components.
