CEN 178 - Robotics 3

5.0 Credits
Through the use of functional testing and the oscilloscope, students will learn to trobleshoot a robotic system. Also introduces the student to programming a large scale robot using LabVIEW and programming and building a robot system using the Arduino . prototyping platform. Prerequisite: CEN 177 and CEN 162 with a minimum grade of 2.0 or instructor’s permission.
