What are we teaching our kids?

When your computer breaks just throw the whole thing in the bin and buy a new one.

Just venting . . . have accidentally fried another micro:bit . . . Under a magnifying-glass, nothing visibly wrong. Such a waste.

What say you? Any teachers out there? Are fried Micro:Bits a regular occurrence with kids?

Security System Accelerator Not Working

0 Upvotes

This is my midterm project (its due tonight oops). I had to program a security system that uses two different sensors. The magnetic sensor is working but my micro:bit says its accelerating when the door is not moving. Any recommendations?

Here for the feedback on our development board
We wanted to build a affordable and easy to use microcontroller for students.
We rolled out our version1 last year, It went really well so far 6000 users bought and build amazing projects with it,

Current version specs: Supports Blocks, Python and C++
Have 8 GPIO pins, supports 15 servos or 8 sensors at a time.
Inbuilt buzzer
Dashboard supports hand detection, pose detection, object detection module similar to google teachable,(But no need of internet, optimized to run on 4gb ram)
Students can create some cool games through the led matrix, Such as flappy bird, snake games
We are currently working on our V2, Need some crazy ideas from you all,
So far we are planning to add IMU and inbuild Motor driver for easy plug and play of motor directly, instead of expansion board and planning to add a OLED display for interactive animation designs
Open for any feedbacks.

Mon programme est censé pouvoir allumer ou éteindre chaque LED de la carte à la demande de l'utilisateur, mais lorsque je reviens au début, il plante avec le code d'erreur suivant : ExternalError : TypeError : Impossible de lire les propriétés de undefined (lecture de « 0 ») à la ligne 5

Voici mon programme :

from microbit import *

import utime

def togglePixelState(x, y):

__if display.get_pixel(x, y) == 0:

____display.set_pixel(x, y, 9)

__else:

____display.set_pixel(x, y, 0)

led_x = 0

led_y = 0

while True:

__if button_a.is_pressed():

____togglePixelState(led_x, led_y)

____utime.sleep(0.4)

__if button_b.is_pressed():

____led_x = led_x + 1

Team Mode/Multiplayer extension

0 Upvotes

Hi! I'm basically interested in utilizing Micro:bit in context of multiplayer/team mode. Sorry if my questions may sound too general, but can someone please say an approximate:

How long is the development stage of the project going to take to create a multiplayer/team player extension?​ (I assume those two differ with each other by complexity)

How much does this solution can cost?​ (I understand that will depend on the size and location of the development team, but at least an estimate)

Human resources required​

Physical equipment (servers, etc.)​ if I want to launch it under my name.
