MECENG 235 - Design of Microprocessor-Based Mechanical Systems
Course Title
Design of Microprocessor-Based Mechanical Systems
Course Description
This course provides preparation for the conceptual design and prototyping of mechanical systems that use microprocessors to control machine activities, acquire and analyze data, and interact with operators. The architecture of microprocessors is related to problems in mechanical systems through study of systems, including electro-mechanical components, thermal components, and a variety of instruments. Laboratory exercises lead through studies of different levels of software.
