Research Experience for Undergraduates in Robotics and Materials

Abstract

Florida International University successfully completed the proposed project entitled, 'Research Experience for Undergraduates in Robotics and Materials.' Nineteen students designed and manufactured a 'user-friendly' industrial robot with three functional axes and an IBM-PC-based C-based controller. The accuracy of the robot is 0.0005 inch when two axes are used. An operator can control the motions of the robot with a few hours of training by using the PC-based controller mouse. The controller also provides graphical simulation of the robot motions.
