			This can be electrical, but it's even more educational with hydraulics - where the working fluid is water and it allows for realistic prototyping of life-size machines.

			Real working prototypes of life size machines can be build with:
			*Mechanical 3D printed structure
			*Small water pumps for real working hydraulics
			*Sensors such as pressure sensor in brick press
			*Working hydraulic cylinders and motors
			*Microcontroller - Arduino - for robotic control
			*Computer vision for appliances such as [[Robotic Vacuum Cleaner]]
			*Programming of Arduino

			Thus, a rich learning curriculum can be created, and when we apply the Construction Set appraoch, this becomes like Legos.
