To provide the best training in software engineering, several approaches and strategies are carried out. Some of them are more theoretical, learned through books and manuals, while others have a practical focus and often done in collaboration with companies. In this paper, we share an approach based on a balanced mix to foster the assimilation of knowledge, the approximation with what is done in software companies and student motivation. A survey was also carried out involving students who had successfully completed the subject in past academic years; some had already graduated, and others are still students. We analyse the results of the survey and share some of the experiences and lessons learned.
More and more, the modern citizen resorts to access to information for his professional activity, social activity or leisure. For this, is essential the use of devices with computational power, such as smartphones.

This paper describes the most relevant aspects of the development of the application.
This document describes an application for automatic visual inspection of automotive fuse boxes. The presented system is being developed to allow the fuse boxes quality test by colour detection. The software was developed using the IMAQ Vision for LabVIEW software-developing tool. The system uses a low price USB web cam as an image acquisition device. The paper along its sections describes the main system blocks.
