Abstract

The objective of this study was to present an example of the development of an Arduino car kit for practice. First, problems in the existing Arduino car kit were analyzed and various prototypes were developed that reflected the improvement plan. The developed kit was applied to the education field to identify problems and improvements, following which it was corrected and supplemented for use as an Arduino car kit for final practice. The Arduino car kit can be used for various experiments and practices related to an Arduino car by using a combination of two car bodies consisting of an upper plate and a lower plate. When a method to couple the upper and lower plates was used, the car body could be easily and quickly configured without the need for bolts or nuts. The developed kit involves a simple and easy assembly method, and hence, the time required for assembling a car body is considerably short. Accordingly, it is expected to be widely used as a kit that can directly experience programming education using a car.

이 연구는 실습용 아두이노 자동차 키트 개발 사례를 제시하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 기존 아두이노 자동차 키트의 문제점을 분석하고 이에 대한 개선 방안을 반영한 다양한 시제품을 개발하였다. 개발된 키트는 교육 현장에서 적용하여 문제점과 개선점을 파악하였으며, 이를 수정 보완하여 최종 실습용 아두이노 자동차 키트로 개발하였다. 개발한 아두이노 자동차 키트는 상판과 하판으로 구성된 2개의 판을 결합하는 방식을 이용하여 아두이노 자동차와 관련된 다양한 실험이나 실습이 수행할 수 있게 하였다. 또한, 상판과 하판을 결합할 수 있는 별도의 결합 수단을 사용하여 볼트나 너트를 이용하지 않고 쉽고 빠르게 자동차의 차체를 구성할 수 있는 특징이 있었다. 개발된 키트는 단순하며 쉬운 조립 방식을 사용하여 자동차의 차체 조립에 드는 시간을 획기적으로 줄였기 때문에 자동차를 이용하여 프로그래밍 교육을 체험할 수 있는 키트로 널리 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
