    Session 2: Programming and Integration with Arduino
                     Activities:

                     1.  Combining Sensors in Arduino

                          Task: Merge the PIR and Ultrasonic circuits in a single Tinkercad simulation using Arduino Uno.
                        When motion is detected and the object is within 30 cm, both LED and Buzzer should activate.
                        Skills Practised:

                            Writing Arduino block-based code using if-else and variables.
                            Combining multiple sensor inputs for real-time decisions.

                     2.  Programming in Tinkercad (Blocks + Text Mode)
                          Task: Use Blocks + Text Mode to view both visual and C++ code. Add comments explaining
                        each part of the program.

                        Skills Practised:

                            Translating block code into Arduino text code.
                            Understanding input (sensors) and output (LED/Buzzer) flow.

                        Outcome for session 2:

                             A  combined  circuit  that  provides  two  safety  indicators—LED  (motion)  and  buzzer
                            (proximity).

                            Properly annotated code demonstrating motion and distance detection.

                     Session 3: Simulating Response Using VEXcode VR

                     Activities:
                     1.  Simulate the School Safety Robot

                          Task: In VEXcode VR, program a virtual robot to patrol an area (e.g., a grid map). When it
                        detects an object (using Front Eye Sensor), it should stop and display a message “Obstacle
                        Detected – Stay Alert”.
                        Skills Practised:

                            Using sensing and drivetrain blocks.

                            Controlling motion and conditional behaviours.
                     2.  Create a Colour Alert System

                          Task: Modify the VEX robot to draw coloured zones using pen blocks, with green indicating
                        safe zones and red marking restricted zones.
                        Skills Practised:

                            Using drawing and logic blocks.

                            Representing data visually using colours.

                                                                                             Capstone Project
                                                                                                                        69
