2. SENSE AND CONTROL
2.1 PASCObot Sense & Control
The PASCObot Sense and Control Kit is supported by digital student activities that cover everything from coding the robot’s first movements to navigating it through a custom obstacle course. Once they've mastered the basics, students can continue their journey by creating their own Blockly programs, PASCObot challenges, and head-to-head competitions.
Grade Level: Middle School
Subject: STEM
2.2 Greenhouse Sense and Control Kit
The Greenhouse Sense & Control Kit is supported by student activities that can be edited to fit your course needs. Each activity builds students' computational thinking skills through Blockly programming and includes opportunities to focus on biology or environmental science concepts. Every investigation includes extensions that enhance engineering and design practices.
Grade Level: Middle School
Subject: Life Science
2.3 //control.Node Sense and Control Kit
Students use elements of the engineering design process to turn on lights, run a cooling fan, open doors, launch rubber bands, and much more.
Grade Level: High School • Middle School
Subject: STEM
2.4 StructureBOT
Program this StructureBOT to move and pick up objects. This versatile robot is constructed out of PASCO Structures components, enabling students to build several different configurations of the StructureBOT (front-wheel steering, rear-wheel steering, with and without the gripper).
Grade Level: College • High School
Subject: Engineering
2.5 Motorized Drawbridge
Build this drawbridge from PASCO Structures, add a stepper motor and gears, and write code to raise and lower it. This bridge kit also includes a Wireless Load Cell/Accelerometer to measure forces within the bridge while it moves.
Grade Level: College • High School
Subject: Engineering
2.6 Motorized Crane
The Motorized Crane is made using PASCO Structures and is controlled and powered by the //control.Node. Students can program the controller to run the stepper motor and servo motors using Blockly coding embedded in PASCO Capstone or SPARKvue software.
Grade Level: College • High School
Subject: Engineering
