Abstract
To keep up with the wide-ranging, fast-moving robotics field, education must be adaptive and multidisciplinary. In this paper, integration of PSoC technology with educational robotics is presented. Both of the advantage: flexibility in hardware for PSoC and modularized robot components are fused. This integration balances research and implementation fundamentals by reinforcing course work with intensive projects focused on robotics technology. This education fostered students´ teamwork skills, while project completion and competition success greatly enhanced the students´ self-confidence.
