developed the Ekranoplanvehicle project during a Technology Education course. An Ekranoplan or Wing-In-GroundEffect vehicle flies very close to a water surface. The vehicle uses design elements of bothairplanes and marine craft. Ground-effect flight enables a vehicle to carry either a larger payloador operate with greater fuel efficiency than a conventional airplane. The candidates testedseveral vehicle configurations, power sources and construction techniques. Vehicle constructionguidelines and curriculum outlines were developed to disseminate to other technology educators.The project has been used to teach the engineering design process to freshman students inWestern Washington University’s Engineering Technology Design Graphics

The history of mechatronicsbegan in 1969 with Tetsura Mori, an employee at Yaskawa Electric Corporation [1]. The termmechatronics is derived from the two general fields of mechanical and electrical engineering, andare bridged by computer science.
