Soft robots can be made from common, low-cost materials [4]. Thenascent field allows for novel contributions from young students. The field is highlyinterdisciplinary, drawing on traditional mechanical and electrical principles to use new materialsfor human-centered, biomedical applications [5].

WorkThe initial work involved determining the features to be developed and included in the finaldesign. The measurement capabilities of Distortion Analyzer, Agilent 35670A, were studied andconsidered for inclusion in the LabVIEW-based design. Some of the capabilities were providedby National Instruments in the Advanced Harmonic Signal Analyzer demonstration program.The features of the Agilent equipment and the demonstration program are included in Table 1below along with a plan for including selected features.Added FeaturesWithin the time period available for this project only few of the features (mentioned asDEVELOPED in Table.1) could be added.

Students create their own custom Linux image for the laboratory development system,learn how-to configure system services, and build device drivers to interface with sensorhardware. Once students have a functioning system, they learn about common IoT networkprotocols, such as MQTT, WebSockets, and HTTP, looking at both the on-the-wire packet formatsand how to build applications using these protocols.

UAV education [Sadraey2020]. Sadraey outlines techniques and challenges he discovered while presenting constructiontechniques of UAVs in a traditional classroom setting. Here he states that, “The root cause forthe lack of convergence between UAV education and practical application is the absence ofexperiential learning. The UAV experience requires students to develop skills such as … in datareduction, analysis, communication, and teamwork.”This paper presents the first phase of our experience with a two-phase project addressing theteaching, implementation, and assessment of online active learning modules in undergraduateintroduction to engineering and physics courses designed to engross students in the process ofadvanced manufacturing
