Measurement Machines (CMMs) o Scanners with Optical Tracking Devices o Structured Light Scanners o Portable Scanners o Laser Scanning ProcessThese scanners use a variety of methods including, still pictures as in the case ofphotogrammetry, or a laser source and time of flight principles measuring time elapsed duringreturn of the energy emitted by a LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) device, or visible whiteor infrared structured-light patterns to detect the deformation in an object as they are reflected ona surface of the object. Even though these methods mainly serve the industrial space, they havebeen used in scanning many historical [6] and anthropological artifacts including shipwrecks ordinosaur

bemulti-axis and must be completed in less than four hours including machine setup and cleanup.The designs created by the students are amazing – both in creativity and in challenge. A small setof the final projects are shown in Figure 8.Changing Curriculum Outcomes and Skills DevelopmentTo meet the changes brought on by incorporating the described technologies, the course outcomesfor MFGE 332 have evolved to suit. These are shown in Table 2. Notably, outcome 1 has beenchanged from “Generate programs for CNC machining using manual part programmingtechniques” to reflect the move away from manual programming to CAM programming. Inaddition, outcome 5 has been added to reflect the increased role that inspection plays in the courseto help students

'zero' coordinates set.The spindle is moved to the test start position and the QC20-W is mounted between two kinematicmagnetic joints. A simple G02 and G03 command program is required to start the test. The“classic” test calls for the machine tool to perform two consecutive circles; one in a clockwisedirection, the other counter-clockwise. In practice there is an extra arc added before and after thetest circle to allow for the machine accelerating and then slowing down. By using extension barsthe test radius can be selected to reflect the size of the machine and the sensitivity to particularissues (e.g. large radius circles are better at highlighting machine geometry errors, smaller circlesare more sensitive to servo mismatch or lag).

Our objective is to examine prior studies in related areas, analyzetheir findings, and compare our proposed research. Additionally, this section emphasizes variousinteraction methods used in previous studies and their impact on collaboration.2.1 Active LearningActive learning follows a constructivist approach and emphasizes student engagement and hands-on, collaborative activities. Constructivism proposes that people gain knowledge through practicerather than passive observation. This approach promotes self-reflection and helps students developthe essential skills needed for professional

power the four drone arms’ motor/electronic speed controller and three optional outlets3.3 Function Testing of PDBAfter the conceptual design in adopted, the next step towards developing this concept into aworking model is to test the function of PDB. The basic electric connectivity between the mainpower node and the utility (distribution) nodes was tested and verified to reflect the circuitdesign. Another important operational consideration is the heating of the board due the highcurrent it delivers from the battery to the motors- through the electronic speed controllers (ESC)-and other utilities. With guidance from the electrical engineering faculty mentor, student withmechanical engineering background set up a test to monitor the temperature

in Table 5 and visualized in Figure 8. This survey was aimed at evaluating students’ cognitive and physical workload while interacting with the module within the MR-shared environment. Table 5 shows that Q2.2 (Presence) received the highest mean value (M=3.79, SD=0.86), indicating that the majority of students felt a strong sense of presence and immersion during the task. As shown in Figure 8, 72% of the students (71 out of 98) rated their experience between “Moderate” and “Very High”, reflecting the effectiveness of the MR-shared environment in creating a sense of engagement among the players (users).On the other hand, Q2.3 (Physical Demands), Q2.7 (Situational stress), and Q2.8 (Distraction)received the lowest mean values with (M=1.57, SD
