1. Lead in |
Without a driver, how can a self-driving car know there is an obstacle in front of it? The tool that help it avoid obstacles is called ultrasonic sensors. Know ultrasonic wave and explain the working principle of ultrasonic wave. List the scenarios in your life where ultrasonic sensors are used. |
15 minutes |
|
2. Objective |
Students give PiCar an overtaking switch. When the switch is on, PiCar gets around the obstacle ahead; otherwise, PiCar doesn't. Students use blocks and paper cubes to make an obstacle, and use tape to draw a lane. |
5 minutes |
|
3. Program Test |
Just as random numbers need to be stored in variables, so does the distance measured by ultrasonic sensors in this lesson. Explain the usage of ultrasonic block, sound effect, number block. Task 1: Make PiCar print the real-time measured distance on the debug monitor and emit an alarm when the distance between PiCar and the obstacle ahead is < 20cm. Task 2: PiCar drives at a 10% speed. 20CM ahead is another car. PiCar overtakes the car in front of it through the left lane and then backs to its original lane. |
30-45 minutes |
|
4. Read the program flow, complete tasks and optimize them. |
Read the flow chart of the program, edit the final task program independently, and complete the task. Guide the students to add various expansions according to their own ideas on the basis of completing the task (teachers can teach students according to their aptitude in this process, and the learning difficulty of students with better ability can be increased). Task 3: Let PiCar drive at a 10% speed. Students give PiCar an overtaking switch. When the switch is on, PiCar gets around the obstacle ahead; otherwise, PiCar doesn't. In this process, the teacher helps the children to be creative and make the game more fun. |
15-30 minutes |
|
5. Summary and Reflection |
Summary:1. What does a self-driving car need to avoid obstacles? 2. How does an ultrasonic sensor work? 3. What does a variable do? Reflection: What did we ask PiCar to accomplish today? What difficulties did we encounter and what did we learn from this process? |
10 minutes |
|
6. Homework |
Use an ultrasonic sensor to design a fantastic usage scenario and think whether PiCar can do it. If so, think about how to program; If not, ask teachers for help. |
