, the advent of theASD is a new and exciting opportunity. The ASD provides flexibility in teaching energy conversion thatwas heretofore difficult to obtain. It provides new challenges that require understanding of concepts andnew developments from a range of disciplines, as will be explained in detail later in this paper. In teaching energy conversion, fixed frequency ac sources have typically been the norm in mosttexts [6-14] and with most educational equipment manufacturers. Because nearly any reasonablecombination of torque and speed is now available from the ASD-driven machine, a whole new range ofteaching and experimental possibilities open up.

However, there are situations where it is desirable to control the NAO, or to run specificprograms, from tablets or other devices that are not supported by the vendor-provided tools. Tosupport a research project for improving the usability of the NAO by therapists treating autismspectrum disorder (ASD) in children, we developed a method of using the WebSocket protocolto send commands from an app running on a tablet device to a NAO
