These are some extra sensors apart from the in-built sensors on Pluto. The aim of explaining these sensors is to educate the students and motivate them to experiment with them in future with Pluto. |
DISTANCE SENSORS (40 mins)
Distance sensors can be used for various purposes. One can design a GPS enabled drone which can reach a specific location. Collision avoiding drones also use distance sensors, to determine the obstacles in their path. Following are some of the distance sensors:
➔ Light-Pulse Distance Sensor
➔ Radio Detection and Ranging
➔ Sonar-Pulse Distance Sensing
