Undergraduate and Graduate Students:
I will be teaching AA/EE/ME 581 “Digital
Control System Design” this Spring Quarter. And while it is officially a
graduate course, it will be open to undergraduate as well as graduate
students.
The University Catalog description for the
course lists AA/EE/ME 584 as a prerequisite. 584 is not a prerequisite
for the course as I will teach it this Spring Quarter (and thereafter).
A solid undergraduate-level background in analog control system
design, is all that will be required to do well in this course.
If your areas of interest includes
mechatronics and/or control system design (and you’ve not taken such a
course before), you will benefit from this course.
And it is my pleasure to announce that,
beginning this Spring Quarter, this course will include a
hands-on-with-hardware component. This component will involve a series
of projects,
each utilizing LabVIEW and a National Instruments myRIO board (which
runs a bona fide hard-real-time operating system); one myRIO board to be
loaned, for the duration of the quarter, to each student who is
enrolled in the course. A video description of this
component is posted here:
Should you have additional questions, please email them to me directly.
