Motivating undergraduate engineering students for the area of control engineering can be a challenging task. Posicast control can be used as a simple technique to introduce both open-loop and closed-loop control systems. This paper addresses several approaches to teach Posicast control involving simulation and practical implementations. A demonstration experiment using the robotic arm (UR5) is reported here as an alternative practical system which can be used to demonstrate Posicast Control. Results obtained from student's perceptions of the reported experiment are presented.
