Abstract:
Sometimes, it is interesting to approach an academic laboratory class from a different perspective. This paper takes on the experience of a group of mechatronic engineering students taking an academic course on laboratory of integral electronics. The students were asked to design a system capable of measuring three vital signs of a patient. To achieve this they use the knowledge acquired in their career up to that moment or managing other knowledge that was required. In order to carry out the project, a project-based learning methodology was followed. This experience allowed the students involved to solve a real problem with a product that responded to the specifications of cost, portability and information available from a mobile device, as well as meeting the requirements to revalidate their laboratory subject matter
