,where the traditional 18-week course is split into three one-credit hour 6-week modules. Withthis separation, different disciplines are able to build their curriculum to the needs of theirstudents. The first two courses (ENGR 2431: DC Circuits and ENGR 2531: AC Circuits)primarily cover topics that non-majors are required to know for the FE exam. The final 6-weekcourse (ENGR 3431: Electromechanical Systems) includes advanced topics not typically taughtin an introductory circuits course, such as LabView programming, digital logic, computercommunications, sensors, and motors. To provide a more practical and hands-on approach to thestructure of ENGR 3431 a robotics project was implemented in the Spring 2011 semester. Thispaper focuses primarily on

The objective of the research is to study the electrical characteristics of ECNF in variousconditions (AC and DC). All five dry ECNF samples are found to be ohmic and exhibit linearbehavior within the range -2.226 V to 2.992 V and the operating frequency is within the range of13 Hz to 850 KHz. As the ECNF samples’ length increase and their cross-sectional area remainconstant, it is predicted that their resistance increases and thus lower their output current. Databeyond this range behaved in a nonlinear manner. In addition, this study shows that ECNF doesallow glucose to be detected. Its lower cost makes it a more economical choice over

the least a high or low pass filter could trigger an on/off event. This can beachieved by combining the band pass filter with an AC-DC converter and a comparator thatdrives the signal to a low or high voltage for TTL control.Results The output signal from the encoder can easily be connected directly to a speaker to listento pitches created by the frequencies generated in correlation with mental activity. These pitchescan be mapped onto the music scale to show the range of notes possible. It is difficult to haveenough mental control to lock on to any single pitch in tune, but a sliding scale of sound can begenerated. Since the game’s adjustment dial changes the frequency range, two ranges of musicalnotes were measured at the extreme
