Shopping around for some components I came upon this module. It is based upon the PCF8591 chip which contains 4 analogue inputs and one analogue output and has the following sensors on board to play with: * Light sensor * Thermistor * Potentiometer This module can be communicated with over i2c and is
After creating an awesome project that has stored data in a file on the micro:bit your probably wondering how to retrieve this data. You could sit down and devise some sort of interface to display the file contents line by line on the micro:bit display but you could
"Yeah, and you could also buy some to loan out like books" That's the statement that grew into an idea which ended with forty micro:bit being added to the catalogue at Kirklees Libraries. It came about at a meeting about if any support could be given to the Family
Some ideas require that small amounts of data be saved for future use. It would be ideal if this was possible on the micro:bit. MicroPython provides the tools to allow this. MicroPython is an implementation of Python 3 that has been developed to run on microcontrollers with a version
By now you should have heard about the micro:bit. It's a nice little board to play around with and is fulfilling the intended role as a simple device to introduce children to basic computer science. Out of the box the sensors on the board and a five by five
