It will also show you how hardware components can be manipulated using a combination of Micro:bit and MicroPython for developing practical projects. BBC Micro:bit in Practice will help you gain a holistic understanding of the BBC Micro:bit platform and MicroPython programming, guiding you through mini projects aimed at developing practical knowledge of circuit design and writing programs. Youâll learn how to write programs for working with built-in LEDs and buttons, interfacing external LEDs, buttons, motors, buzzers, and much more. Youâll also work with built-in radio, speakers, accelerometer, and a compass. Youâll dive into concepts related to the Micro:bit filesystem, interfacing external displays, and working with libraries in detail before exploring sewable circuits and wearable technology.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter reading this Micro:bit book, youâll understand how to apply principles in electronics and MicroPython to create interesting real-life projects from scratch.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat you will learn\u003c/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eExplore the essentials of the BBC Micro:bit, its hardware specifications, and versions\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eProgram built-in and external LEDs and buttons\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eProgram external LED-based displays, buzzers, and stepper motors\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eUse analog input and pulse width modulation to drive a servo motor\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDetect gestures with internal sensors such as accelerometer, compass, and magnetometer\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eWork on projects with built-in features such as music, speech, radio, and filesystem\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExplore the advanced features of the Micro:bit\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWho this book is for\u003c/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is for anyone who wants to use the combination of MicroPython and the BBC Micro:bit for building exciting real-life projects. Engineers, researchers, hobbyists, and technology instructors working in areas such as embedded systems, electronics, software development, IoT, robotics, teaching, and training will find this book useful for building projects. Prior experience with building basic electronic circuits and any programming language, not necessarily MicroPython, will be helpful.\u003c/p\u003e
