Protecting/Stealing the Trillion-Dollar Bill

Length: 6+ Hours

Discipline: Mechanical Engineering

Level: Advanced

Author: Mynderse, James

Type: Problem

This problem encourages students to investigate sensor integration as part of a mechatronics course in mechanical engineering. The intended sensor is a strain gauge, but other designs will work. The key features of the problem include: sensor selection based on problem specifications; sensor integration which may include amplification, RC filters, A/D conversion; consideration of environmental, budgetary, and social factors; analysis of an existing sensor design.
