I saw a project online made with a arduino, then I’am always triggered, can that be done with the micro:bit too. And yes it can be done. And it was not so hard. There is only 1 small piece on the carton to connect to the servo. So that is triggy. I have to come up with a solution for that.
Shopping
- 2 micro:bits with battery, cable and battery’s
- 1 Wukong Board
- 7 servo’s 180
- Extra jumper cables female – female
- Karton
- PDF with digital number
- an empty shoe box
To do
I made a letter 8 in word to cut the cartons. I had an empty shoe box to put the servo’s on. There is only a very small part where you can glue the carto on the servo. So it is very fragile. I hope I will have time to make it again and much more sturdy. I started off with 1 servo and i figured it out how to move the carton with the code. Then I continued with everytime 1 extra servo motor. I had to use extra jumber cables to connect to the wukong board. When the code was working, I also made a remote controller. When I shake the micro:bit the other micro:bit reacts with making the number and making a sound as many time the number is.
Code
I made to different code’s. One code on the wukung board what is making all the numbers. I worked with functions to test it all out. And 1 code for the remote.
