Windshield wiper 擋風玻璃水撥 @STEM II 12 models

A windshield wiper is a device for the cleaning of the front window or rear window of a vehicle, airplane, ship or a rail vehicle.  In November 1903, the American, Mary Anderson, received the patent for the first working windshield wiper system in the world.

With the help of two push-button switches, you can query four switch positions and insert them accordingly into your program:

You can use the light barrier to control the interval. For this, the light barrier is interrupted after every wiping cycle.

Task 3
Change the program so that in switch position 1, intermittent switch control is created. In this case, the light barrier is interrupted after every wiping cycle. After two seconds, the wiping cycle is restarted.

This is a specially discounted package - delivered in a clear plastic bag.  

Each pack comes with the bonus fischertechik storage base (box 250 x 186) 

I/O board for micro:bit 

micro:bit pins extension board, designed specially to take advantage of  fischertechnik's unique,  flexible red and green round plug cable connections. By design, the I/O board rubber legs slot into the fischertechnik black base-plate grid securely.

 

The price below is for 1 model out of the 12 models STEM II pack.  If you want to build all 12 models, order the full STEM II pack instead.

• All model parts can be reused and recycled for other projects and student's creative pieces.    fischertechnik is made in Germany with quality and precision.
• No soldering.  Ideal for all ages, promote problem solving, changes on the fly as debugging and adjustment can be done instantly.    All works can be done to perfection as even the smallest adjustment can be accommodated, thanks to the complete range of mechanical/structural and electronic blocks offered by fischertechnik.
• One of the 12 models of STEM 2.   You can now order it on its own for easy whole class lesson, without needing to pick and sort building blocks every time.  

Part 1 - micro:bit block commands used in the Windshield Wiper model 

To achieve fluency and competency in micro:bit coding, you really need to get a thorough understanding of each of the block catagories to be used in the Handrier  Model (see part 2 below for the full code).    Fortunately, all the reference guides are available on the BBC micro:bit web site for you to get a deeper and more comprehensive understanding and mastery.

Through every fischertechnik STEM II model (12 of them), you can learn, practise, build fluency and confidence in coding.

The Merry-Go-Round Model used the following micro:bit blocks.  You can click to lean more about each of the block catagories.  The links bring you directly to the respective part of the BBC micro:bit reference document site, where live codes are included for you to understand, try, and download:
