Abstract
Students will gain knowledge about types of control systems as well as be able to develop their own control system that receives input from the environment and has the robot respond as a result of the input. The students will gain knowledge of programming and robotics while using LEGO® MINDSTORMS® robotics and LabVIEW™. This PBL uses LEGO® MINDSTORMS® robots and LabVIEW™ technology to engage students in the process of product development and collaboration with a team. Students will apply their knowledge of velocity, acceleration, and mechanical physics to make decisions about the best way to design a robot to complete a desired task.
