We use this project in our introductory robotics and control engineering class to teach control feedback.
Students should have a basic knowledge of programming. We use Micropython on the Raspberry Pi Pico but you can use anything your students are programming in.
The following is needed per station:
- Printed parts
- Circuit boards, Gerber files attached (Can get them for $4 each on DKRed or far cheaper from JLCPCB if able to order from foreign companies)
- Raspberry Pi Pico
- Power jack
- 2x headers
- JST-XH 3 pin male
- JST-XH 4 pin male
- JST-XH 3 pin female
- 9200 RPM 5015 fan
- 4.7k 0805 resistor
- Sharp GP2Y0A41SK0F distance sensor
- Distance sensor cable
- 24v power supply
- Generic ping pong ball
