Thesis Title: Embedded System Design for Multiple Degrees of Freedom Smart Robotic Prosthetic Hand Research Advisor: Dr. Steve Chiu Teacher Partner: Chad Majeske Degree Sought: Master of Science in Measurement and Control University Department and/or Lab: Measurement and Control Engineering Research Focus: My professional interests include robotics, control systems, microprocessors and computers. One example of how you integrate your research into your GK-12 experience: The Lego robots incorporate many areas that are closely related to my interests, which are microcontrollers, mechanical design, and programming. The Lego robots are primarily geared towards the FIRST Lego League competition, which involves designing a robot that can complete specific missions. Through the process of the FIRST Lego League competition the students gain an understanding of the type of work that I am interested in. |
