Do you like constallations or zodiac signs? Most people like constallations very much. They like to keep track of every update news or posts about constallations, especially their own constallations. It provide a good path for them to know themselves better, including their characters, tempers and fortune. Reading articles about constallations can release them from busy work and get some guidance for their lives. Although astrology can be called a kind of superstition and mostly is not true, I like constallation too. It is very interesting. 12 Constallations/Zodiac Signs Today I am going to show my first program that I made with BBC micro:bit. Actually I am not a technician nor someone who has a technique background. I am just a starter, a young green-hand in programming study. You might wonder how I make it. With BBC micro:bit, program becomes much easier. In the following, I am going to make zodiac signs displayed on micro:bit screen. Want to see how I make it? Let's just ...

Last week, our team member Song and Tyler had paid a visit to a primary school in Nanshan Shenzhen. Guess what they bring? A BBC micro:bit lesson! Now let's take a view of their lesson and see what they teach. Some teaching aids for presentation, including  bbc micro:bit ,  ring:bit car ,  micro:bit watch band  and a book. Class began, Song introduced himself first and then took out a piece of micro:bit. He successfully drew students' attention. All students listened very carefully. A small game for students to create their first programs in their lives. This game is really simple! Just display your names on micro:bit. You can do it too! A video showing students what can we do with this small board as well as some amazing creations. All students watched this video very carefully. Students showed great interest in micro:bit artworks. Some even discussed about to create their own devices one day. Tyler walked into students' groups to help them crea...

  This car is built by our friend Ramin Sangesari. He has made a cool smart car with our  micro:bit ,  motor:bit ,  power:bit  and  metal gearmotor . Now let's take a look of his car!  Components 1 x  BBC micro:bit board 1 x  ElecFreaks Motor:bit 1 x  ElecFreaks Power:bit 1 x  Pololu Zumo Chassis Kit 1 x  ElecFreaks Micro Metal Gearmotor Introduction The Micro:bit is an ARM-based embedded system designed by the BBC for use in computer education in the UK, but it is currently available in other countries of the world. The board is 4 cm × 5 cm and has an ARM Cortex-M0 processor, accelerometer and magnetometer sensors, Bluetooth and USB connectivity, a display consisting of 25 LEDs, two programmable buttons,and can be powered by either USB or an external battery pack. The device inputs and outputs are through five ring connectors that are part of the 23-pin edge connector. The Micro:bit was designed to encourage chi...

I wanted to connect the BBC Microbit to a standard motor driver board like the L9110 or the L298N. The Micro Bit (also referred to as BBC Micro Bit, stylized as micro:bit) is an ARM-based embedded system designed by the BBC for use in computer education in the UK. This little device is a very compact microprocessor with Bluetooth and an accelerometer built in, and a 5 x 5 led matrix for simple messaging. more info on tis micro controller can be found at  microbit.org . There are a number of motor boards available for the microbit, but I had a number of others lying around which are cheap and it gave me a chance to see how to use the extra connections available on the microbit. I wanted to make a bot that I could add extra sensors and using the L9110 would drive 2 motors so my bot could drive around. This instructable is only going to detail using the L9110 and adding the motors a simple chassis. The same process could be used to add an L298N instead. Step 1: Required Hard...
