Case_06 Remote Control

Our Goal

Using another micro:bit control the ring:bit car.

Requiered Materials

1 x Ring:bit Car
1 x micro:bit

Background

What is wireless ?

Wireless technology sends message by radio wave because changes of electricity will generate waves. We can use this to load the message to the wave. Variation of electromagnetic field will generate the electricity when the electromagnetic is arrving the receiver. Then, to extract the message from wave by demodulation to send the message.

Hardware Connect

Connect the left wheel servo to P1 of the Ring:bit expansion board and the right wheel servo to P2.
