A versatile, hands-on learning tool that provides students a strong understanding of basic engineering concepts, core mechatronics, and MATLAB® and Simulink® programming through fun projects connected to real-world industries. 

Overview

The Arduino Engineering Kit Rev 2  provides extensive learning outcomes, giving students a strong understanding of basic engineering concepts through fun projects that create a collaborative learning environment. Students are able to connect what they learn with real-world industries, are encouraged to think critically, and improve their depth of knowledge by learning  through experimentation. Ideal for advanced high school and college students. 

The Arduino Engineering Kit Rev 2  is a versatile, hands-on learning tool that demonstrates key control systems concepts, core aspects of mechatronics, and MATLAB® and Simulink® programming. The projects cover the basics of model-based design, control systems, image processing, robotics, signal processing, and more - plus they’re fun to do!  The kit includes  all the physical components you need, including learning materials and software, to build the three projects: a self-balancing motorcycle, a webcam controlled rover, and a drawing robot. There’s online step-by-step guidance, so it’s ideal for students working in small groups or for facilitating remote learning. 

The kit is primarily for three types of users: students learning about mechatronics engineering, professors looking for practical resources to support their class, and makers with an interest or background in robotics, either professionally or as a hobby. 

Adapting the kit and further experimentation

Educators can freely tailor the Arduino Engineering Kit Rev2  to their students´needs and their own curriculum.  You can use this versatile kit as the core of a new engineering mechatronics class or freely adapt the content to your own ideas and experiments while implementing MATLAB® and Simulink®, for example as part of laboratories and final projects.

Opportunity for lots of experimentation for both educators and students. In addition to the three projects, students have the freedom to experiment, design, and develop new solutions using the software and hardware components in the kit, which are some of the tools that are used in industry and help students learn valuable career skills they’ll use in the future.  Students can also buy the kit and use it to experiment at home and for extended learning. 
 

The kit includes online learning content material with step-by-step instructions, lessons and activities, ideal for students working in small groups or for facilitating remote learning. Students and professors can use this versatile kit´s content as the core of a new engineering mechatronics class or freely adapt the content to their own needs and curriculum. 

The content is designed to help students to get started with the kit, Arduino, Matlab and Simulink, and the basics of mechatronics. At the same time, it includes  in-depth step-by-step activities  on how to build, design and program three projects that help students to learn fundamental engineering concepts, key aspects of mechatronics, and MATLAB® and Simulink® programming through a hands-on way.

Project Tutorial by fullmakeralchemist

An intelligent device to track moves with responses during an interactive space with mapping, backlight, music and smart sculptures. This project makes use of a machine learning algorithm capable of tracking and detecting moves to identify associated gesture recognition through a microcontroller. Smart sculptures, lighting, music and video projection to trigger with each assigned gesture, creating a powerful AV experience highlighting the incredible potential of TinyML for the performing arts. This allows the corresponding media set Tiny ML in interactive to play when the right move was made because all these elements interact to create a new experience. This allows us to create Interactive installations, these sculptures use a combination of motors, sensors, and other electronics to create an immersive and interactive experience for the viewer. They may include projections, sound, and other sensory elements to create a complete experience.

These projects from CMU incorporate the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense in clever ways
May 22, 2023

With an array of onboard sensors, Bluetooth® Low Energy connectivity, and the ability to perform edge AI tasks thanks to its nRF52840 SoC, the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense is a great choice for a wide variety of embedded applications. Further demonstrating this point, a group of students from the Introduction to Embedded Deep Learning course at Carnegie Mellon University have published the culmination of their studies through 10 excellent projects that each use the Tiny Machine Learning Kit and Edge Impulse ML platform. Wrist-based human activity recognition Traditional human activity tracking has relied on the use of smartwatches and phones to recognize certain exercises based on IMU data. However, few have achieved both continuous and low-power operation, which is why Omkar Savkur, Nicholas Toldalagi, and Kevin Xie explored training an embedded model on combined accelerometer and microphone data to distinguish between handwashing, brushing one’s teeth, and idling. Their project continuously runs inferencing on incoming data and then displays the action on both a screen and via two LEDs. Categorizing trash with sound In some circumstances, such as smart cities or home recycling, knowing what types of materials are being thrown away can provide a valuable datapoint for waste management systems. Students Jacky Wang and Gordonson Yan created their project, called SBTrashCat, to recognize trash types by the sounds they make when being thrown into a bin. Currently, the model can three different kinds, along with background noise and human voices to eliminate false positives. Distributed edge machine learning The abundance of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has meant an explosion of computational power and the amount of data needing to be processed before it can become useful. Because a single low-cost edge device does not possess enough power on its own for some tasks, Jong-Ik Park, Chad Taylor, and Anudeep Bolimera have designed a system where
