Lesson 11: Internet of Things (IoT)
Competency 11: Explore Building Blocks of Digital Systems & IoT
⚙️ Unit Overview
This lesson covers Microprocessor Development Systems (MDS) like Arduino and the Internet of Things (IoT). You will explore input/output pins, sensors, actuators, and how to control devices remotely.
1. Microprocessor Board Explorer (11.1)
Understand the basic building blocks of a development board (e.g., Arduino/Genuino). Click the hotspots to learn about the components defined in your syllabus.
Select a component...
Click on the yellow buttons on the board to see details.
2. Sensor Logic Simulator (11.1)
Simulate the syllabus scenarios: Light sensitive LED (LDR), Temp controlled Fan, and Door Security.
💡 Smart Light System
Turn LED ON when it gets Dark (LDR).
Logic: IF Light < 30 THEN LED = ON
🌡️ Auto-Fan System
Turn Fan ON when Temperature is High.
Logic: IF Temp > 30°C THEN Fan = ON
🚪 Door Security
Detect Open/Close with Magnetic Switch.
Logic: IF Magnet == Away THEN Alarm = ON
3. IoT Simple Application (11.2)
Demonstrating a "Simple IoT application to construct a remote switch" over the internet.
