With the Boxbots we made a stepper motor move. Another thing we did with the boxtbots is, we made a servo motor move. One more thing we did was we made a distance sensors numbers change with moving any object closer or farther away from the sensor.
This is a stepper motor. The purpose for this is so that it can move. An example for the purpose can be to make a little robot move.
This is a servo motor. The purpose for this is to provide controlled rotational motion. An example of where a servo motor is needed can be in robotic arms.
A distance sensor is used to measure the distance between the sensor and an object or surface. The primary purpose of a distance sensor is to provide real-time measurements of how far away an object is. This information is crucial in many applications, particularly in automation, robotics, and safety systems.
