- This is presentation is decomposed in three sections. The first section contains the state of the art. The second one compiles the work which has been carried out. The last section includes the paper contribution and the achieved conclusions.
- The robotic educational tool is intended to be a cost-effective platform to be included in STEM educational programs using robotics in order to engage students on engineering.
- There are lots of development platforms. The state of the art carried out cover how developers are using current development platforms and the educational applications which are made.
- The aim of the platform is eases the learning experience. This is covered with a system which allows easy reconfiguration, flexibility, versatility and scalability.
- The areas where the design is focused are Hardware, Firmware and Software. The Hardware is intended to connect the FPGA and the Arduinos within the Robotic Educational Tool.
- The architecture is based on a Main Module conformed by an FPGA. The Secondary Modules holds the Arduino.
- The presented tool shall implement the following functionalities: reconfiguration, scalability, compatibility, concurrency, protection, prototyping and flexibility.
- Several development methodologies has been analyzed and evaluated in order to choose the one which facilitates all design areas. The best choice is the V-Model methodology because its ease of use for Hardware, Software and Complex systems.
- The architecture methodology is defined by seven steps: platform specifications, architecture design, components description, implementation, integration tests, system tests and testing with students.
- Four levels are defined in order to decompose the architecture complexity. The first one, students oriented captures the high level specifications and contain the validation tests. The second level defines the system functionalities. A deeper level covers the system architecture. In the last level compiles the lowest level specifications and implementation activities.
- Slice figure shows the methodology diagram. How the layers are related with the methodology steps and how transitions can be made from one step to other. As it is shown, transitions from two non contiguous steps can be made.
- For the Hardware design, a more detailed and specific methodology has been defined. It is conformed by 6 steps which covers the traditional steps followed during Hardware development. When a fix is detected, it is fixed in the step where it can be fixed. Then, the next steps will be repeated including the applied fix.
- The Hardware design is intended to release two kinds of PBAs: Main Module and Secondary Modules. Main Module requires an FPGA, a Bluetooth module and it has to be compatible with Arduino Shields. Secondary Modules requires Arduino and it has to be compatible with Arduino Shields. The external elements compatibility is achieved with Arduino Shield compatibility.
- Currently, the first prototypes have been released. The current slice shows a simple setup which holds a Main Module and a Secondary Module. This setup includes one Wifi communication port and two Bluetooth communication ports. In the right two prototypes are depicted. A protoboard educational setup which includes four protoboard boards and one TFT touchscreen in the top. Below it, there is a robotic legs educational setup.
- The paper contribution are the following: the progresses of the robotic educational tool, the premises of this work, a compilation of specification to improve STEM and the capabilities of the platform which allow its use in a class. The robotic educational tool is modular, reconfigurable, flexible, adaptable and cost-effective.
- The robotic educational tool is intended to be used with students aged above 15 years. Its cost is estimated about 100 euros. It is being developed with a custom methodology. The platform is based on and released as Open Software and Hardware.
