ELECTROMECHANICAL SYSTEMS AND SENSORS.

Catalog description

Applications of electronics and microcontrollers to the control of electromechanical systems. Topics include driving brushless motors (including stepper motors), brushed permanent magnet motors, and other mechanical actuators; the use of the sensors including IMU,LIDAR, RADAR, GPS, capacitive/inductive sensing, laser distance, thermocouples, strain, pressure, optical encoders, and Hall devices; and control applications. Course includes significant laboratory content and a project with extensive hardware and software requirements. Prerequisite: Admitted into an Engineering Professional Program. C or better in both CSE 3323 and CSE 3442 .
