Introduction

In this project, we will learn how to make an intelligent noise - controlling door and window.

Note: This case cannot use the set of structural parts to simulate the application scenario, but can realize the basic case production.

Teaching Objectives

Review the functions of micro:bit

Understand the hazards of noise

Teaching Preparation

Before starting the teaching, please make sure you have prepared the following necessary materials:

PictureNameQuantityRemarks
Smart Home Explorer Kit1

These materials will provide you with a complete experience and ensure that you can proceed smoothly with the subsequent operations and learning. If you have prepared the above contents, we can move on to the next step.

Course Introduction

In this class, we will make an intelligent noise - controlling door and window. When the micro:bit detects that the noise exceeds the threshold, it will automatically rotate the servo to close the door and window.

Project Production

Hardware Connection

Connect the Adapter to the J1 interface of the Petal Basic Expansion Board.

Connect the 180° servo to the S1 interface of the Adapter.

Programming Platform

We usually use the graphical programming platform makecode to program the micro:bit.
