| Description | Students control a robotic arm from both a machine's and a computer science engineer's perspective by performing a simple task with a few instructions and constraints. Why do we care about a robotic arm? What does a robotic arm have to do with engineering? Creating such an arm comes from a design that involves mechanical, electrical, and computer science engineers. As expected, students generally do not know the complexity that goes into building and programming a robotic arm. This activity allows students to control a robotic arm from both a machine's and a computer science engineer's perspective by performing a simple task with a few instructions and constraints. |
