Remote Operations
This Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) DIY Faraday Challenge asks students to work in teams to design and make a prototype device that can be operated remotely to pick up objects and accurately locate them on a given target. Devices such as these are increasingly used in medical engineering...
Telemedicine is a new and fast developing field in healthcare. Even 20 years ago the idea of a surgeon being able to operate a robot from hundreds of miles away in order to perform an operation seemed like science fiction. Today, this is not only possible but engineers, working with scientists and doctors, are now...
Remote sensing in dangerous environments
This activity sheet is based on the Inventive Podcast. It introduces electrical engineer Jack Howarth, and links his work to a physics topic. The activity sheet also supports Careers Benchmark 4: Careers in the curriculum by introducing a career and role model. There are also links to short audio clips of Jack...
Remotely piloted air systems
The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the use of science, technology, engineering and mathematics when controlling Remotely Piloted Air Systems (RPAS). Students will use computing and maths skills to create a flight plan for RPAS.
