ENGI-3002Embedded Systems for Mechatronic Applications
In this foundational course, students will follow a roadmap for integrating embedded systems into mechatronic applications from start to finish. After surveying the hardware and software of embedded systems, students will identify mechatronic system requirements and select sensors and actuators. Students will select communications protocols to collect data and then apply control systems and signal processing methods tailored to each mechatronic application. Finally, students will develop strategies for diagnosing faults on embedded systems and apply them during the commissioning of their hands-on project to improve performance, power efficiency, and resource utilization in mechatronic systems.
