Most of these courses have a number of objectives relating to the development of traditional technical skills, including familiarization with design and shop tools, incorporation of physics into design decisions, and methods for analysis and testing. These courses, which are a form of experiential learning,, can have a number of additional broader objectives as well. These broader objectives can include fostering creativity, persistence in overcoming obstacles, making all students welcome regardless of their prior experience in design, and understanding how to work on a team and manage a project. While assessment of traditional technical and analytical skills is straight-forward to assess in exams and report

This voltage represents the control positionand is fed into four ADC channels of Arduino to get corresponding digital values. The Arduino UNOADC has a resolution of 10 bit, means it maps input voltages between 0 and 5V into digital valuesbetween 0 and 1023; in other words, 4.9mV per unit.
