Description

Micro:bit is significantly applied to STEM education for teenagers, as a small microcontroller, which features small in size, easy to carry, and powerful function. At present, innovative technology products, like robots, wearable devices and interactive electronic games can be produced by programming and code. In this kit, we will guide you how to control and generate a Micro:bit turtle smart car through programming in Makecode. MakeCode is a framework for creating interactive and engaging programming experiences for those new to the world of programming. The platform provides the foundation for a tailored coding experience to create and run user programs on actual hardware or in a simulated target. To make you deeply know the micro:bit, we provide test code and projects. The Keyestudio micro:bit smart car integrates obstacle avoidance, line tracking and IR and Bluetooth control functions. It contains passive buzzer, ultrasonic sensor, KEYES-2812-18R module, IR obstacle avoidance sensor and so on. The passive buzzer makes music play, a KEYES-2812-18R module can display different effects, a photoresistor can detect light intensity. Simultaneously, this smart car is chargeable. You only connect power to the port of battery holder.

Micro:bit Pins

Before getting started with the following projects, firstly need to figure out each pin of micro:bit main board.

The BBC micro:bit has 25 external connections on the edge connector of the board, which we refer to as“pins”. The edge connector is the gray area on the right side of the figure below. There are five large pins, that are also connected to holes in the board labeled: 0, 1, 2, 3V, and GND. And along the same edge, there are 20 small pins that you can use when plugging the BBC micro:bit into an edge connector.

Please refer to the following diagram shown below.
