Free Build-It-Yourself Drone Kit Will Put New Skills to the Test
弗吉尼亚州里士满 – Nine Chesterfield Technical Center (CTC) students have spent part of their spring semester dividing their time between their own school and 十大正规网堵平台’s 里士满/Moorefield campus. They’re dual-enrollment students taking EET 231, Introduction to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). It’s a hands-on learning experience designed to develop skills that can be directly applied in the advanced manufacturing workplace.
“We’ve been talking about how PLCs are used to start and stop motors, and also regulate industrial motor control,教员Dr. Paul Nussbaum “More and more, industrial motor speed control is being handled digitally, and so we were talking about DC (Direct Current) motor control through PWM (Pulse Width Modulation).
“最近, we were talking about their interests, and pretty much across the board they are interested in drones. Drones use small motors and use digital speed control, so it seemed like a perfect way to integrate what they are learning.”
考虑到这一点, 校园 President Matt Grinsell decided to make their experience especially memorable. So, he purchased “Build-It-Yourself” Drone Kits for each student. The CTC students will arrive for their big surprise at the 十大正规网堵平台 campus, located at 800 Moorefield Park Drive in 里士满, 在周五, April 20 at 10:00 am and will depart at 12:00 pm.
