I Tire/Structure Mechatronics

Credit Hours: 

This course relates to a rapidly evolving area in mechatronics with many applications affecting current and future transportation systems such as autonomous reconfigurable ground and aircraft vehicles and future conventional vehicles. The `intelligent tire¿ technology utilizing tire-based sensors is considered in the course for improving mobility, energy efficiency, safety and reliability of the vehicles. Reconfigurable vehicle structures are discussed in conjunction with the intelligent tire dynamic response and vehicle-terrain interface issues. This advanced course provides students with knowledge in designing mechatronic systems/devices of intelligent tire and vehicle structure systems by combining theoretical and practical aspects of the intelligent tire and reconfigurable structures; advanced topics nonlinear modeling of dynamic systems; and sensor and actuator technology. Students will gain fundamental knowledge, analytical skills and hands-on experience through workshops, innovative homework, and laboratory test.

Use Your Cell Phone as a Document Camera in Zoom

  • What you will need to have and do
  • Download the mobile Zoom app (either App Store or Google Play)
  • Have your phone plugged in
  • Set up video stand phone holder

From Computer

Log in and start your Zoom session with participants

From Phone

  • Start the Zoom session on your phone app (suggest setting your phone to “Do not disturb” since your phone screen will be seen in Zoom)
  • Type in the Meeting ID and Join
  • Do not use phone audio option to avoid feedback
  • Select “share content” and “screen” to share your cell phone’s screen in your Zoom session
  • Select “start broadcast” from Zoom app. The home screen of your cell phone is now being shared with your participants.

To use your cell phone as a makeshift document camera

  • Open (swipe to switch apps) and select the camera app on your phone
  • Start in photo mode and aim the camera at whatever materials you would like to share
  • This is where you will have to position what you want to share to get the best view – but you will see ‘how you are doing’ in the main Zoom session.
