These activities are heavily dependent on the student(s) developing a mathematicalalgorithm or a mathematical approach to solve the given problem. In order to understand how atask could elicit design thinking, we began to review literature on design thinking and collectedstudio problems from the industrial design program at the college. Studio problems are used tointroduce concepts, vocabulary, and skills applicable to continued study in a variety of visualdisciplines.

The Fuzzy Logic controller contains two input membershipfunctions (MF). The functions are identical, but one processes the left sensor inputs and the otherprocesses the right sensor inputs. Five linguistic variables were used as: {VS, S, M, W, VW } denotingVery Strong , Strong , Medium, Weak, and Very Weak.
