Description of the learning unit
|
The final practical result – to make a part of a bionic hand prototype. Here teachers and students will be acquainted with bionic manipulators principles, with the 3D printing and 3D modeling techniques, how to visually/graphically program a microcontroller and make the bionic fingers move depending on the buttons pushed by the user.
Practical exercises involve: Tinkercad 3D graphics modeling; Participation in the 3D printing procedure; Practical programming and experimentation with the constructed bionic hand parts.
