ALUMNI • Current professional and academic practices • Project ideas for our students
PRECEDENT • Mechatronics at Stevens Institute • Could our students complete a graduate level project?
PRECEDENT • R&D Platform • Reuse / modify
ENROLLMENT 0 20 60
DESIGN CONSTRAINTS • Assume no prior knowledge. • Each student does everything. • Body. Nervous system. Brain.
FABRICATION • Virtual prototyping • Reality Aided Design
3D PRINTING • Avoid ‘kits of parts’. • Goal: Approach 100% fabrication in-house.
DESIGN • Avoid ‘kits of parts’. • Situated learning. Respond to constraints. • Differentiate. Address standards.
DESIGN • Use the hardware and software as creative tools. • Mathematics. Art. Engineering.
ELECTRONICS • Assume no prior knowledge. • Autonomous and manual control.
ELECTRONICS • Manual control: Ground
ELECTRONICS • Manual control: Air
ELECTRONICS • Manual control: Air
ELECTRONICS • Autonomous control
ELECTRONICS • Fundamental robotic controls • Introduction to programming (SHHHHHHHH!)
PROGRAMMING • Assume no prior knowledge. • Demystify the things that students use everyday.
PROGRAMMING • How is this taught at Stanford / Harvey Mudd / et cetera? • Algorithmic thinking. Language agnostic.
