This capstone course for the mechatronics specialization track will be used as the final project for the mechatronics students. Students will integrate and build upon knowledge and skills gained in previous courses to design, assemble, and analyze mechatronic systems using modern methods and tools. Lectures and laboratory experiences will include control theory, dynamic system behavior, communication protocols, pneumatics, embedded programming, and analysis in time-and-frequency domains. The course concludes with an open-ended team-based multi-week design project. Contact hours: Class - 1, Lab - 3. Credit hours: 3 (T)
