This eBook was written as the third installment in the series that coincide with three engineering courses taught at the University of Oklahoma (ENGR 2431, ENGR 2531, and ENGR 3431). These courses were designed to provide non-major students – those not majoring in electrical or computer engineering (ECE) – a foundation in various ECE topics. ENGR 2431 is a prerequisite for both ENGR 2531 and ENGR 3431 and it is recommended that the DC Circuits book be studied prior to beginning the eBooks created for the other two courses.

In the ENGR 3431 – Electromechanical Systems, LabVIEW is introduced to help explain many of the various topics and is used for the hands-on project, where students apply the knowledge gained through the semester in digital logic, sensors, and motors to build a robot. The robot is programmed using LabVIEW state machine architecture, describe in the LabVIEW overview. This eBook, which coincides with the ENGR 3431 – Electromechanical Systems course, has a variety of different topics, and when coupled with the topics in the previous two eBooks, a solid ECE knowledge-base is provided. Studying these three eBooks gives the students the background needed to dive into electromechanical system projects. Any student, regardless of major, interested in robotics or mechatronics would also be benefited by studying the topics contained in this eBook trilogy.

Before reading this book, an understanding of LabVIEW is desired so the examples and figures in this book are easier to understand. There is also a robot project in ENGR 3431 that requires LabVIEW programming. In my experience, the best way to learn LabVIEW is by diving in and creating a project and using tutorials and online resources to help you figure out how to do the things that are needed in order to complete the project. Some tutorials that will help you get started are shown below.
