degree of complexity in design, the use of simulation enablesengineering students the ability to develop solutions for the system requirements. However, thiscan become problematic to adequately provide a realistic environment for teaching the design ofrobotics systems. In recent years, with the coordination between Cal Poly Pomona and BoysRepublic, we have developed Project Ponderosa. Project Ponderosa provides Cal Poly Pomonaengineering students the opportunity to design various robotics, and automation systems that willbe operated and maintained by Boys Republic students for Christmas Wreath Production at theirfacility. This project constitutes the college student’s senior capstone project providing themwith real-world experiences to prepare
