Engineering Education, 2022 2022 ASEE Midwest Section ConferenceII. Overview The objective of this work was to design a robot kit that can be utilized to teach the basicsof computer vision with Python to robotics at the high school and college level, at the same timeproviding critical hands-on experience with this type of design project. The learning tool consistsof a three-degrees-of-freedom robotic arm equipped with a camera for computer vision. Belowthe camera is a workspace fixed to a panel, all mounted on a portable station. The Pythoncomputer vision program runs on a Raspberry Pi 4, sending commands to an Arduino Uno board.When assembled and programmed, the robot will be capable of sorting objects by color

Sadly, physical scientists who want to learn such things usually have to teach themselves.The project described here provides an authentic context in which our undergraduatemechanical engineers gain such computing expertise and more. Programming, design,simulation, and analysis are all intertwined in a project-based setting designed to beengaging for engineering students. We have patterned our approach after what cognitivepsychologists call a macro-context [7], connecting lessons and assignments to ameaningful overall goal that gives learning purpose. Research has shown that suchcontextualized learning is significantly more effective than traditional classroom learning[1,2,6].In addition to enriching the educational experiences of

Thesequence culminates in the Rowan Junior/Senior Engineering Clinic, in which students work onreal engineering research and design projects. Project teams work with close faculty supervisionand usually consist of 3-4 students; sometimes drawn from a single discipline and sometimesrepresenting several, depending on the needs of the particular project. Most projects areexternally sponsored, either by local industry or government agencies. However, students alsohave the opportunity to propose
