In thismultidisciplinary project, the students designed and built an easy-to-use yet versatilesurface robot that can autonomously cruise on the surface of water and take underwaterdata in real time. In less than two years, the robot has evolved from a proof-of-conceptprototype to a functioning robot that can autonomously pilot itself and test water qualityas deep as 30m. Extensive field tests have been performed at various locations withdifferent water qualities and weather conditions. Currently, the multidisciplinary group isgearing up to develop a third generation amphibious robot that can launch itself andreturn to the land. This robot, also called IMAPS2, will also be applied to the

Capstone Design ProjectI. IntroductionThe Hofstra University mechanical engineering program requires students to take twocapstone design courses – one in the mechanics area; the other in the thermal/fluids area.This paper discusses a Spring 2007 design project in the latter area; in particular, aproject dealing with design of a ventilation system for a room.Over the past four years, our department has experienced an increase in enrollment in themechanical engineering program. We are not completely sure as to the reason for this.Perhaps the increase is due to the students’ perception of an improved job market in theME discipline. It may also be due to the mechanical faculty’s emphasis on teaching andinteraction with students rather than research
