Purwarupa Penghapus Papan Tulis Otomatis guna Meningkatkan Efektifitas Proses Belajar Mengajar di Sekolah Dasar

Abstract

In general, primary and secondary schools still erase the blackboard manually. These activities will take up study time in the classroom and can even cause clothes to become dirty. From these problems, an innovation based on microcontroller technology is proposed to clean the blackboard by pressing the push switch. This automatic whiteboard uses a servo that will function as a drive that will move the eraser to clean the board. The micro servo can move because it is connected to the Arduino Uno that has been programmed. The workings of this blackboard eraser prototype are when the switch is pressed, and the micro servo will move the eraser with a large angle of rotation direction that is 90 ° from the bottom up repeatedly until the whiteboard is clean. The research process began with the Double Diamond approach introduced by the British Design Council. It was a design process using a social approach by conducting activities with prospective users of innovation, which are integrated with an approach with design thinking to produce technology-based innovations that are beneficial to candidates that users. After getting the primary solution, it will proceed with making a simple prototype that will be used to test the functions and benefits with potential users. From the results of testing with prospective users, obtained satisfactory results in terms of ease of use of technology, the benefits of innovation, and function in prototypes.
