The campaign may involve traditional advertising or other outreach projects such as a kids television show (like Bob the Builder) or Lego League or robotics competitions. Several professional organizations (National Association of Manufacturers, National Council for Advanced Manufacturing, industry groups, academic groups, etc.) should work together on this. • Sponsor more conferences and meetings on manufacturing engineering education (17) It is recommended that the series of conferences focusing specifically on manufacturing engineering education be continued.

This system is economical, has a uniform lightintensity with the capability of producing multi-layer laser sheets to create a 3D image of theflow that is spread over a large volume. Compared to the existing devices used in the aviationand space technology industries, such as the Particle Image Velocimeter and the NFAC Long–Range Laser Velocimeter (LRLV), the light intensity of each sheet produced by the VolumetricFlow Visualization System is uniformly distributed and

The camera module is connected to thegoggles and the processing is done by an inbuilt processor. The image from cameramodule is taken as an input which is processed and filtered by various algorithms tosegregate most useful features and thereby identifying them for the blind person. One ofthe objectives served by the processor is face recognition if a known face comes in frontof the user his name is given as voice output from the earphones attached to themicroprocessor.

In 2010,the availability of low-cost robotic arms increased substantially. These types of robots are idealsolutions with applications in automation, laboratory, and education because of their adaptabilityto various industries and tasks. The objective of this project is to design a low- cost/affordableindustrial robot manipulator including base, arm, wrist, and end effector with similar functions toa human arm and fingers with educational applications.

, and the low to nonexistent availability of replacements. Additionally, older machineparts tended to be single-made, versus mass produced, which further complicates finding anappropriate replacement. This is a distinct problem when dealing with ageing machines that arestill in use, but cannot be easily fixed. This paper presents an example of how reverseengineering, modeling, and prototyping using a Maker Space may be employed to generate a partfor an ageing steam locomotive. To further student learning of reverse engineering andmodeling, this project was additionally used to fulfill and Honor’s Contract in an introductory3D constraint-based modeling course.1To graduate with an Honors diploma, students at Western Carolina University must

. Page 23.1336.2Introduction CAM and CNC technologies are important subjects in the training of ManufacturingEngineering Technologists. A good grounding in these involves both learning the basic conceptsand applying these in various settings to fabricate parts and tooling. The CAD/CAM option inthe MET program at Western Washington University is designed to do just this. Students aretrained on industry-type CNC machines and utilize these extensively in project work forfabrication. The program is committed to using industry-type equipment as opposed to CNCtrainers for the following reasons: It develops confidence in students on the type of equipment they will encounter in practice. Trainers can convey a false sense of security.

Although bothtechnologies are commonly used in various fields of industry and daily life, this research studyreports a unique implementation of both technologies in a new entrepreneurial environment. Theentire study had been performed in Summer 2016 as part of the Research Experiences forTeachers (RET) Supplement of a National Science foundation (NSF) funded project. In tenweeks of extensive design, 3D Printing, and casting studies, several best practices between theP16 educators and students have been established. As a
