Leach STEAM SEM EXAM

Leach STEAM Semester Exam

TermDefinition
Identify The first stage of the design process where we identify a need or problem and set clear goals and constraints for the solution, asking key questions about what's needed and what's been tried.
Brainstorm Research existing solutions and come up with creative ideas, exploring various possibilities without judgment.
Select Develop a detailed plan, breaking down the solution into manageable steps, often involving sketching or modeling concepts.
Build Construct a working model or prototype of the chosen design to test the concept in reality.
Test Rigorously test the prototype to see if it meets the requirements, collecting data on its performance.
Optimize Based on analysis, refine the design by going back to earlier steps (planning, building, testing) to make necessary changes and create a better version.
Share The final stage in the design process where a successful solution is presented.
Control System Much like our brain, this system uses a central processing unit (CPU) running software, receiving sensor data, and sending commands to actuators to dictate the robot's actions.
Power System This system provides the necessary electrical energy (batteries, power cords) for all components to function.
Sensor Network This system uses devices that gather information (light, sound, touch, distance, temperature) from the robot's internal state and external environment, feeding data to the controller.
Actuators This system acts like our muscles and converts electrical energy into mechanical motion (like spinning wheels or moving joints) to drive the robot's physical movement.
End Effectors These are devices used as a tool at the end of the robotic arm, like a gripper, welder, or drill, that performs the actual work.
Mechanical Structure This system gives the robot physical structure (links, joints, wheels, body) that supports and connects all the other components.
Communication System This system uses a code that defines the robot's behaviors, logic, and tasks, telling the controller what to do.
Edison Bar Coding This programming method for edison robots uses a light sensor that passes over a printed code much like ringing up items at a store to pay for items.
Edison Movement This Edison robot control allows you to set the duration and speed that a motor runs.
Edison Sound This Edison robot control allows your robot to play various musical tones and their duration.
Safety Goggles A safety device that protects the eyes against hazards like impact, dust, chemicals, and splashes.
Work Gloves A safety device designed to shield hands from various hazards, such as cuts, abrasions, burns, chemicals, and impact
Ear Plugs Soft safety devices inserted into the ear canal to block or reduce external sounds, water, dust, or cold air, primarily for hearing protection in loud environments (like construction or concerts) to prevent damage.
CAD Computer Aided Design.
Import This is a function of CAD software that lets you bring a shape into a model.
Extrude This is a function of CAD software that allows you to stretch or extend sides of an object.
Merge This is a term in CAD software that means to take two objects and join or melt them together.
Hard Hat A safety device that protects the head from falling objects, impacts, and bumps.
Respirator A safety device that protects the lungs from dust, fumes, and other hazardous materials.
TinkerCad An app used to make three dimentional objects that can be converted into STL files for printing.
Safety Boots This safety device is footwear with steel toes to prevent crushed toes and puncture-resistant soles.
Safety Harness A safety device used when working at heights to prevent falls.
Knee Pads A safety device that cushions knees during kneeling tasks to prevent strain and injury.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
