MECHANISMS AND MOTION - ROBOTICS FOCUS

PREPARING FOR A CAREER IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING & 3D DESIGN - Solid Edge; Solidworks; Creo; Blender; AutoCad

What you'll learn:

• Gain a better mechanical understanding of how mechanisms work and relate to machine and robot design. Prepare yourself for the first class you will take in Mechanical Engineering at University.

Robots use mechanisms to performa rich variety of tasks and while building a robot in highschool can be a lot of fun and agreat learning experience, this alone will not prepare you for theintroductory class in Mechanical Engineering at theUniversity level.To move to the next levelstudents need to understand mechanism, 3D CADand motion. This is the foundation of Robotics design and countless other areas concerning machine design. Understanding mechanisms and how they work is a critical part of Mechanical Engineering and Design.This class takes a look at various types of mechanism used to build machines androbots.
