Lighting with Tiny bit Tutorial 3.1: LED light

Details

Tiny:bit microbit robotis a robotic car for the micro:bit education market.

It is compact, easy to assemble, and easy to move in tight spaces. The Tiny:bit smart car is based on the micro:bit development board design and uses the online code programming of MakeCode Editor.

1. Preparation

1-1.The position of the LED lights in the robot car

1-2.Learn about the principle of LED

Programming method:

Mode 1 online programming: First, we need to connect the micro:bit to the computer by USB cable. The computer will pop up a USB flash drive and click on the URL in the USB flash drive: http://microbit.org/ to enter the programming interface. Add the package: https://github.com/lzty634158/Tiny-bit to program.

Mode 2 offline programming: We need to open the offline programming software. After the installation is complete, enter the programming interface, click【New Project】, add package: https://github.com/lzty634158/Tiny-bit, you can program.In the picture shown below, the two white squares circled by the red wire frame are the colorful lights on the Tiny-bit.

Principle: LED light (red, green, blue) are packaged in the LED module. We can mix different colors(256*256*256) by controlling the brightness of the three LEDs.
