Unit Overview and Outline:
DC Motors are actually simple motors, and there are lots of resource online to get them to work.. But they can also be tricky. Noise is a big factor in getting DC motors to work with sensors... I'll repeat that again later...
Learning Objective:
Learning Objective:
Be able to explain how a DC Motor works
Know the differences and be able to explain what types of DC motors there are
Be able to debug and identify a DC Motor
Be able to find and run code on a Ardunio or Raspberry Pi to spin a DC Motor
Prerequisites:
Prerequisites:
No explicit prerequisite course work or coding knowledge is required, but students are expected to have a good understanding of basic computer principles.
Caution & Safety Considerations:
Caution & Safety Considerations:
Primer: "Aaron, I can imagine no way in which this thing could be considered anywhere remotely close to safe. All I know is I spent six hours in there and I'm still alive... You still want to do it?"
As with any activity, please make sure you are using appropriate safety equipment. If you are coding, make sure you stand up and stretch every hour or so, Please consider any safety issues connecting the Raspberry Pi, Arduino's, computers and other electronic equipment.
