穆格航空航天公司慷慨捐赠的设备使霍华德大学电气和计算机工程系（ECE）能够使用最先进的工业电机控制开发一个新的电机和控制实验室。因此，翻修了一个实验室，并配备了三相电源，以容纳新的工作站。这些工作站的硬件基本上都是完整的，但是人机界面、控制和数据采集系统的改进还在继续。这种能力的关键硬件元素是一个可嵌入的dSpace数字信号处理器（DSP）控制器板，可以根据系统目标连接到各种传感器和执行器。工作站提供了许多可能的实验马达和控制类似那些学生将遇到在“现实世界”。此外，正在为工作站发展实验室实验。这些实验将作为本科三、四级课堂的补充。
A generous equipment donation from Moog Aerospace has enabled the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at Howard University to develop a new motor and control laboratory using state-of-the-art industrial motor controls. Accordingly, a laboratory has been renovated and equipped with three-phase power to house the new workstations. The hardware for each of these workstations is mostly complete, but refinements are continuing on the humanmachine interface, controls, and data acquisition system. The key hardware element of such capability is an embeddable dSpace digital signal processor (DSP) controller board that can be connected to various sensors and actuators, depending upon the system objectives. The workstations offer many possibilities for experimentation on motors and controls similar to those that students will encounter in the “the real world.” Moreover, laboratory experiments are being developed for the workstations. These experiments will supplement junior-and senior-level undergraduate lecture classes.
