Distinguished Faculty Lecture: Robotic Running: Understanding Robotic Principles to Become a Better Athlete

Dr. Vogt’s work has always been grounded in the sensations of the body, and he teaches his students at Salt Lake Community College to learn using multiple senses—for example, sight and hearing can provide radically different understandings of acceleration. His instruction also relies on non-academic activities, like music and endurance exercises, to encourage a comprehensive understanding of engineering concepts.

"My teaching experiences have shown me that students respond very positively when the human body is used to model complicated engineering and scientific concepts. This is because so many of these concepts use all the senses of the body (sight, sound, touch, smell, proprioception, etc.). The study of robotics is divided into 3 major categories: seeing, actuation, and cognition. This lecture will go into depth of why and how robotics are an ideal modeling platform to best understand the connections between human athletics and science."
