The pins on your Micro:bit that are labelled 0, 1 and 2 can be used as touch inputs. To do this you need to touch the ground pin with one finger and one of the 3 pins with another. A better method of testing is to...
I bought an Espruino board while back because it allowed you to code in JavaScript using a neat chrome add on - a web ide and then flash your device.
We will look at how you can use C++ to write programs for your Micro:bit, there is an online compiler you use and we will show you how to access.
A force-sensing resistor is a material whose resistance changes when a force or pressure is applied. Force-sensing resistors consist of a conductive polymer, which changes resistance in a predictable manner following application of force to its surface.They are normally supplied as a polymer sheet or ink...
In this example we will create a VB.net program that will read data from the serial port, in this case a Microbit connected to the PC. We will then upload.
This example melds together our Microbit and an AD keypad and our Microbit built in tunes and allows you to play a different tune based on a key being pressed We only selected 9.
I purchased this module as part of a microcontroller kit, its an interesting little module as it has 16 buttons but with only 1 I/O line is required, an analog input. You connect this to your Microbit and read in the value. The concept is straightforward you use a resistor...
The neopixel module lets you use Neopixel (WS2812) individually addressable RGB LED strips with the Microbit. Note to use the neopixel module, you need to import it separately with: import.
For the purposes of education and entertainment, the module contains several example tunes that are expressed as Python lists. They can be used like this: import music music.play(music.NYAN) All.
