DESIGN CYCLE OF A ROBOT FOR LEARNING AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CREATIVITY IN ENGINEERING

This paper attempts to show the main aspects which have given evolution to the development of a device belonging to a new pedagogic strategy called educational robotics. We present how starting from the basic design requirements expressed, and after applying a rigorous and methodological design process, the design specifications are obtained according to the different pedagogical, functional, esthetic, constructive, and economic aspects which this strategy proposes to implement.
