Build a functional prototype and explore design principles of the different mechatronic components and systems
ME-410 - Mechanical product design & development
Study and explore design principles of the different mechatronic components and systems. We will cover in-depth especially on meso-scale actuators, sensors and body construction methods.
Each group will be responsible for producing a product based on the hands-on tutorials that will cover
-
acutators (Shape memory alloy, penumatic actuators)
-
structures (origami, cable-pulled underactuated system, 3D printed modular blocks)
-
model (SMA actuator, silicone based blocks)
each group is evaluated on their prototype and report.
