the Simulink model the pulses in thesignal are counted and converted to an angular velocity. Since direction is not important in this setof experiments only one photo interrupter was used. However, a second photo interrupter couldbe added if direction is needed in the future.Motor DriverSince the voltage and current required for the motor are too high to be directly sourced by theRaspberry Pi, an additional power supply and H-bridge were used to drive the motor. A variableDC power supply that has 1.5V increments from 3V to 12V was selected. However, 4 AAbatteries could also be used. The SoftPWM library from the WiringPi libraries was used inanother Simulink S-function driver to generate the pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal to drivethe H

The TLC is supporting our professors of practice as theytransition from industry to academia and teaching. The support by the department chair reducesperceived risk of trying new teaching pedagogies. Finally, we are building a diverse communityof faculty dedicated to teaching in a department that has not has a strong teaching community inthe past.Ambrose, S. A., M. Bridges, M. DiPietro, M. C.

That is thereason that automating the design process through hardware description languages and softwarethat reads those languages to configure programmable logic devices has been so successful. Onthe surface, everything is cookbook and easy. Complex systems are assembled by replicatinglots of simple circuits, a process at which digital computers excel. Circuits designed by studentsin the lab for an introductory digital circuits course fall into this category of design. Once
