PEEB (Portable Experimenter Engineering Board)
The Portable Engineering Experimenter Board (PEEB) is an open-source hardware platform for first-year engineering education. It integrates multiple sensors and actuators with a microcontroller interface, enabling experiments in logic circuits, system dynamics, and control. Designed for affordability and reproducibility, PEEB lowers barriers for hands-on learning in classrooms and outreach.
Layout
The layout of PEEB is intentionally designed to be flexible, adjustable, and modifiable to accommodate additional features as needed. It consists of three layers: a top layer where students can work and interact with the system, a mid-layer housing the essential components for the experiment, and a bottom layer containing tools such as multimeters and power sources. This structure allows for easy integration of new functionalities as the course progresses.
PEEB was designed to integrate multiple components on a single board, allowing students to become familiar with the circuit as they use the same kit throughout the semester. All components and connections were strategically planned to meet the requirements of the ENGR128 class. Below are some pictures showing the schematics and the circuit.
Collaboration
I am always looking for collaboration. If you can use PEEB in your course settings, please reach out to me here. I will be happy to discuss a potential partnership.
