Design of Matlab/Simulink based development board for fuzzy logic education

In this study, an application development board designed for education of fuzzy logic. Using this development board, students can learn how to design a fuzzy logic controller and test it. Also this development board ensures the consolidation of theoretical knowledge with various practical experiments. In this way, students' interest on the course has significantly increased. The most studied processes in industry are temperature and motor driver systems. Learning to control these processes is very important in engineering education. Development boards are specifically produced electronic cards that allow students to make various experiments for consolidation of theoretical knowledge via application in practice oriented courses. Today, in parallel to development of embedded systems, there are a lot of operating systems developed in this field. Open source developed Arduino development boards are being more preferable because of working independently from the platform. Arduino development boards also can operate in full compliance with Matlab / Simulink.
