Abstract
With the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), related education and teaching activities need to be followed up urgently. Robotics curriculum system and teaching pattern related to AI also need to be innovated and reformed. In this case, we designed the robot software engineering course, which includes robotic core functions: navigation, vision, speech interaction and manipulator operation, etc. To accelerate novice learners to grasp the basic knowledge about AI, we developed the universal robotic platform based on ROS, and apply it to a variety of specific environments and scenarios. To investigate the effect of the proposed education method, we provided opportunities for the novice learners to attend the International RoboCup Competitions, and obtained not only the Champion but also a serial of remarkable achievements.
