Furthermore, the extant literatureoften fails to convey the plans and details necessary to replicate or expand upon studies in thisline of research, as detailed descriptions of the FDM tooling solutions used in variousexperiments are not often clearly described in an easily reproducible way. This paper (poster)presents the results of an engineering technology student capstone project that sought to developa low-cost, flexible, and modular end-of-arm 3D printing tool that can ultimately be used todemonstrate fused deposition modeling (FDM) concepts using an industrial robot. To achievethis goal, students considered which, if any, widely available desktop FDM components

I stumbled upon many videos and documenta-tions regarding people creating their own generators in Unreal Engine, and outside of that scope. For most of them theyhad applied an algorithm named A-Star Algorithm. This one was quite a useful one and mostly for auto generation.The idea behind it is to use Dijkstra’s algorithm that takes in consideration all neighbors, checks for the shortest pathto the end, and checks the most optimal path, but also taking in consideration the distance from the current node tothe very last node which we plan it to arrive to [3].

While two papers focused onincorporating HD throughout the four-year curriculum [9], [17] and one described a global healthdisparities minor [16], the remaining six papers focused on individual courses at different stagesof the curriculum (first year [10], [15], middle years [12]-[15] and last year [11], [15]).Additionally, approaches to incorporating HD vary.
