Abstract

A hands-on assignment framed under the learning by project approach was assigned trying to offer an engaging theme for students from different Engineering undergraduate programs. Many concepts in Mechatronics were integrated in a very friendly way with LEGO-Mindstorms hardware. A vehicle concept to assist the plague detection in agriculture that was raised after project completion is proposed.
