Robotics and Prosthetics at Cleveland State University: Modern Information, Communication, and Modeling Technologies

This chapter concentrates on the correlation between research-based education, government priorities and research funding. Special attention is paid to an analysis of the role of modern information and communication technology (ICT) in the education of engineering students. Successful cases with specific description of computer modeling methods for the implementation of prosthesis and robotics research projects are presented based on experiences in the Embedded Control Systems Research Laboratory of Cleveland State University.
