SENSORS AND INSTRUMENTATION

2024-25 Semester 1- Assignment-CW-2

RBE204TC– Coursework Assessment 2

Module title: Sensors and Instrumentation

l Total Credit: 5

l Module leader: Dr. Shenhong Wang & Dr. Sze-hong Teh

1.   The expected learning outcome from the module spec

a.   Demonstrate a distinct understanding of the physical principles underlying common electrical sensors, applying this knowledge to practical scenarios

b.   Analyze and interpret basic sensor specifications, showcasing a comprehensive understanding of their significance in measurement systems

c.   Examine  and  critically  evaluate  the  system  requirements  for  a  typical  measurement  system, demonstrating a deep understanding of their implications

d.   Evaluate  and  analyze  common  factors  influencing  the  performance  of measurement  systems, demonstrating a critical appreciation of their impact

e.   Acquire  the   ability  to  use   specific   sensors  and  instrumentation  for  a  given  scenario  that demonstrates practical proficiency in performance and sustainable evaluation

2.   Philosophy of the assessment design

a.   To align with the philosophy of Syntegrative Education (problem-based & project-focused)

Projects with specific practical problems or goals

b.   To meet the expected learning outcome

Each student’s contribution will be proportionally evaluated and the students with a significant potential need to be acknowledged.

3.   The proposed assessment scheme to meet the above philosophy

a.    Scope – Deep dive into the engineering design of one specific sensing functional requirement for a self-driving car or ship, total mark of 50.

b.   Delivery 1 – Project report, the word number could be less than 2000, a total of 40 marks.

c.   Delivery 2 – Presentation, the slide deck could be less than 20 pages, a total of 10 marks.

d.   Submission – CW2, 10 pm of Sunday Week 7 of Nov 3rd.

e.   Evaluation – offline, the report & presentation need to be submitted in Learning Mall, only English is accepted.

4.   The proposed assessment framework

Note,

i.      The problem statement – please pick up one typical functional requirement and revise it into a clear problem statement for further investigation.

ii.      The  sensors  and justification – please list  out the typical sensor type list in the market and confirm the specific sensor to move forward with solid justification.

iii.      The design details – please complete an extensive analysis and finish the design.

iv.      The prototype and test – please implement the design and validate the design.

v.      The summary – please make an insightful conclusion and share the reasonable path-forward.

vi.      The presentation – please provide a full story from the completed project.
