issues of environmental factors and tomeet the requirement of Senior/Capstone design project course, students worked in a team todesign, fabricate and test a mobile Robotic System to monitor and map data from theenvironmental sensors in a well-defined trajectory in an academic building. The EnvironmentalMonitoring Robotic System consists of Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) supported by theencoders on the Robot base to determine the location of the Robot and a Kinect@ Microsoft Inc.camera to detect objects and obstacles in the trajectory. The proposed systems also consist of theRobot Operating System (ROS) and sensor section for monitoring the environment. The ROSsection is used for mapping and localization of the mobile robot.

collaborative,mutually agreeable relationship that involves teaching, learning and building knowledge. Theirinteraction may be on a time from requiring basic skills to application of advanced, disciplinaryskills, as in a capstone experience. Students may observe, participate, teach, or offer a talent.Some of these opportunities may embody values orientation, such as practical and active learningfor engineering and different technical fields. Some students may interact in style, production orinstallation of a small project or be a part of an oversized project with business partners’ currentactivities, while others might have students support a method of growth, development, andvisioning around core issues. No matter what kind of engagement, the outcome
