Module 9: Lesson 1- Dynamic Message Signs Using Makey Makey
This learning module, from the National Center for Autonomous Technologies (NCAT), provides a lesson on Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) for high school students. Learning outcomes include the following:
- Students will create a simple sensor using the Makey Makey circuit board which will be used to simulate a Dynamic Message Sign.
- Students will then learn how to connect and program the Makey Makey circuit board to allow the sensor to interact with oncoming traffic.
- Students will use a free internet-based programming software called Scratch to program a sensor. Scratch is compatible with the Makey Makey circuit board.
- Students will learn how to add sound clips to their Scratch program to create an interactive sensor.
