Device Design Methods.

Catalog description

Semester course; 3 lecture and 2 laboratory hours. 4 credits. Prerequisites: EGRB 203 ; EGRB 215 , BNFO 201 or CMSC 254 ; EGRB 307 ; MATH 301 ; and MATH 310 , all with a minimum grade of C. The main goal of the course is to introduce a variety of design and prototyping methods for biomedical devices. The focus will be on: (1) using first approximations and Solidworks for mechanical design and (2) using Arduino microcontrollers for controlling sensors and actuators.
