Control Systems Lab Using a LEGO Mindstorms NXT Motor System
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Kim, Y. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2011
This paper introduces a low-cost LEGO Mindstorms NXT motor system for teaching classical and modern control theories in standard third-year undergraduate courses. The LEGO motor system can be used in conjunction with MATLAB, Simulink, and several necessary toolboxes to demonstrate: 1) a modeling technique; 2) proportional-integral-differential…

Problem-Based Learning in Instrumentation: Synergism of Real and Virtual Modular Acquisition Chains
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Nonclercq, A.; Biest, A. V.; De Cuyper, K.; Leroy, E.; Martinez, D. L.; Robert, F. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2010
As part of an instrumentation course, a problem-based learning framework was selected for laboratory instruction. Two acquisition chains were designed to help students carry out realistic instrumentation problems. The first tool is a virtual (simulated) modular acquisition chain that allows rapid overall understanding of the main problems in…
