Students will learn how the Hexi Carousel Bot can be controlled using a sensor. The teacher will first explain the concept and show how the sensor can detect an action or object.
Then, step-by-step, the children will connect the sensor and motor to complete the circuit. When the sensor detects an object or action, the Hexi carousel starts rotating, showing how sensors can control robot movement automatically. 🎠🔎
This lesson introduces the concept of controlling the Hexi Carousel Bot using a sensor. It demonstrates how a sensor can detect an object or action and automatically control the movement of the carousel.
In this activity, the Hexi Carousel Bot is connected to a motor driver and a sensor module. When the sensor detects an object or action, the Hexi carousel starts rotating, showing how sensors can make robots respond automatically.
Through this activity, you will explore:
Basic understanding of sensors in robotics
How a sensor can control a motor
How robots can respond to their environment
To build the sensor controlled Hexi Carousel Bot, the following materials are used:
