Embedded Systems and Robotics Lab

NI myRIO is a revolutionary hardware/software platform that gives
students the ability to “do engineering” and design real systems more
quickly than ever before. Complete with the latest Zynq integrated
system-on-a-chip (SoC) technology from Xilinx, the NI myRIO
boasts a dual-core ARM® Cortex™-A9 processor and an FPGA with
28,000 programmable logic cells, 10 analog inputs, 6 analog outputs,
audio I/O channels, and up to 40 lines of digital input/output (DIO).
Designed and priced for the academic user, NI myRIO also includes
onboard WiFi, a three-axis accelerometer, and several programmable
LEDs in a durable, enclosed form factor.

The students will learn to use the Pitsco TETRIX PRIME® building system and myRIO to construct and automate three
model robots that complete basic to advanced tasks. For each robot, students build the physical assembly, connect sensors
and actuators, run programs in LabVIEW, and learn the high-level controls theory that applies to the robot's function.
Students are encouraged to apply their creativity and the skills they learn to develop additional functionality for the model
robots, and create new robot designs on their own.

Vel Tech Rangarajan Dr.Sagunthala R&D Institute of
Science and Technology now offers a Campus-Wide License
to MATLAB, Simulink, and companion products. All
faculty, researchers, and students are eligible to download
and install these products on their college computers as well
as their personally-owned computers. Use the latest versions
of MATLAB and Simulink and other MathWorks products
to support your course work and research.
