|
|
Create a charting app for simulating and measuring the acceleration applied to the micro:bit
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Prior learning/place of lesson in scheme of work
|
|
|
|
Learn the functions of **on data received**, **send number** and **receive number** and chart `plot bar graph` for `acceleration` in the "x" dimension.
|
|
|
|
## Documentation
|
|
|
|
```cards
|
|
input.acceleration(Dimension.X)
|
|
led.plotBarGraph(0, 1023)
|
|
basic.showNumber(0)
|
|
radio.onDataReceived(() => {})
|
|
radio.sendNumber(0)
|
|
radio.receiveNumber()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Objectives
|
|
|
|
* learn how to repeat code in the background forever
|
|
* learn how to get the acceleration value (g-force), in one of three specified dimensions
|
|
* learn how to display a vertical bar graph based on the value and high value.
|
|
* learn how to register code to run when a packet is received over radio
|
|
* learn how to broadcast a number data packet to other micro:bits connected via radio
|
|
* learn how to read the next radio packet as a number data packet
