This paper describes a low-cost approach for teaching mechatronic concepts to undergraduate engineering students. The laboratory unit includes a wide range of mechatronics related subjects, including computer interfacing, design, prototyping, controller implementation, mechanism synthesis and analysis and, hardware-in-the-loop simulations. The students are given a shoebox filled with all needed materials with the goal of completing several projects with clear objectives. The students can plan and accomplish the goals in many ways, and will gain greater technical skills sooner and become technically more mature. For the experiments described in this paper, prototyping and control of a 5-link parallel robot to follows a planar trajectory is described as a project.
