BEE 5910

Advanced Bio-Robotics

Course Description

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2022-2023.

Students translate materials learned in BEE 3900/5900 to explore bio-robotics for biological engineering applications such as fruit harvesting. Embedding robotics into biological systems (i.e. plants or animals) will be tested with soft bio-robotics. Students will translate the concept and basic principles of biorobotics into a practical robot in this course. Their designed robot will meet ASABE national robotic competition standards.

When Offered Spring.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: BEE 3900/5900 or equivalent.

• Review and identify state-of-the-art research using Raspberry Pi.
• Identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering robotic components by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics.
• Apply robotic design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of agricultural health and safety.
• Create a robot as a final product by applying engineering and biology principles.
• Develop performance verification tests to assess if the system meets or exceeds your team's design specifications.
