Main Project Example for EECS 1021

The following is an example of a main project for the EECS 1021 course. While I think that it's important to provide concrete examples it's also important not to provide examples that are trivial to copy and, thus, reduce the effectiveness of the example as a learning tool. As such, I'm providing this example using […]

State Machines for Electro-mechanical Projects in MATLAB

A challenge that new engineering students have when developing programs is trying to determine how to plan out their program. Should the student include a loop? Two loops? One after the other? One inside another? When adding sensors and actuators -- as we do in our course -- when should the sensor be read and […]
