Challenge: Thrill Ride
BUILDING AND PROGRAMMING
BUILDING AND PROGRAMMING
To create a thrill ride
ALL students will: Create a device with basic movement and programming
MOST students will: Create a device with two axis and the movement is triggered by sensors
SOME students may: Create a device with at least two axis, the movement is triggered by sensors and the speed is gradual.
Check your plan with your partner and discuss what you need to build first.
a) Build your Device
Make sure the device is built with the plan in mind
Make sure the device is robust
Make sure you account for humans to enter and exit the ride, and sit/stand in the ride.
b) Put 3 photos of your device on your site
Make sure each photo is from different angles
Make sure the images are a suitable size
a) Program the device
You must ensure the device accelerates and decelerates when a touch sensor is pressed. Below is an example of how you did acceleration during the programming challenges.
Make sure the programming is efficient
b) Include a screenshot of your code
This must cover the width of the page
c) Discuss what your code does step-by-step
Make sure your MS Rover Robotics Online Portfolio is clearly labelled and every image is a suitable size.
