For that reason, the course isdivided into three phases: Introduction, Setup, and Assertion-Based Verification.

In the workforce,such knowledge gaps may occur, and one such instance is the hydraulics knowledge needed bythe environmental health specialists working for the state Department of Public Health (DPH) toexamine swimming pool plans prior to approval. An agreement was reached between a publicuniversity and the DPH to meet this need for engineering education.

A CV algorithm uses inputs such as objects andimages/videos from a sensing device such as a camera. It analyzes the image and automaticallyrecognizes color, shape, and size as a human would, but faster. Mechanical sorting machines usea physical mechanism and gates with color sensors to do the sorting; these are typically slowerrate and less accurate.The objectives of the work described in this paper are to 1) develop a low-cost portable gantryrobotic system with computer vision for sorting jellybeans by flavor; 2) design lesson plans andactivities for advanced programing
