Lesson 12 40 mins

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
