Low-cost Printable Robots in Education
The wider availability of 3D printing has enabled small printable robots (or printbots) to be incorporated directly into engineering courses. Printbots can be used in many ways to enhance lifelong learning skills, strengthen understanding and foster teamwork and collaboration. The experiences outlined in this paper were used in our teaching during the last academic year, although much of the me...
متن کاملIntegrated Codesign of Printable Robots
ion can allow an expert designer to implement a PCB composable to enable more complex electrical devices and circuits, at the expense of in-home fabricability for a casual user. 5.2.1 Information Flow. As in the mechanical layout, the sources and sinks of electrical information can reveal the underlying structure of the design. In the case of electrical signals, units such as sensors or communi...
متن کاملLow-cost Range Sensing for Laptop Robots
This paper details the design, creation, and deployment of two low-cost range sensing devices for mobile robot platforms. The first is a set of sonars individually mounted on servo motors. These sensors’ angular coverage allows for effective obstacle avoidance, but does not provide precise surface placement due to sonar’s well-understood conical response window. An inexpensive laser range finde...
متن کاملTeaching Artificial Intelligence with Low-Cost Robots
While robot platforms have played a role in artificial intelligence and robotics education for over 30 years, the cost and size of these platforms have limited their reach. Recently, low-cost robot platforms have emerged, extending hands-on educational benefits to a diverse audience. In other work (Greenwald & Kopena 2003), we present and discuss the construction and implementation of a course ...
متن کاملHelping and monitoring robots at low cost
Through European countries the dependency ratio of elders and people with disability will rise in the next years. To avoid a degradation of the life quality of dependant persons, they may be maintained in their home. To ensure people safety and avoid isolation problems, some mechanisms are needed. We propose a new method, the X-development method, to guide generic product design from end-to-end...
