A BBC micro:bit and a moisture sensor will get you and your garden plants communicating. By Hannah Joshua. 10 July 2019 Davis Stock for NewScientist. IN OUR previous 10-week “How to be ...

While growers can use the sensors to monitor water in soils for their crops, civil engineers can embed these chips in concrete to determine optimal moisture levels as the concrete cures.

The Micro:bit features programmable buttons and LEDs, ... An accelerometer, compass, and temperature and moisture sensors make it responsive to its immediate environment.

Micro-Measurements, a Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (VPG) brand, is dedicated to the development, manufacture, and marketing of resistive-foil sensors for high-precision strain measurement.

The Micro Bit is being distributed free to a million 11 to 13 year olds across the UK over the ... meaning an external sensor can be connected to measure things like temperature, moisture, ...

And by using a second BBC micro:bit, we can get the readings before heading outside. First, we need a DHT11 sensor, and to check whether it works using one micro:bit. To do this, we must teach the ...

The BBC Micro:bit, while not quite as popular in our community as other microcontroller development boards, has a few quirks that can make it a much more interesting piece of hardware to build a ...

The BBC micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer that you can code, ... meaning an external sensor can be connected to measure things like temperature, moisture, proximity to other devices.

I made a theremin-like thing! It uses the micro:bit's light sensor, one of the buttons, and the speaker. While I hold down button A, a tone is played out of the speaker whose pitch is set by the ...

The Micro:bit includes two important elements that make this project work: the LED matrix and a gyro sensor. [Turi] built a 5×5 button matrix for inputs and paired each to one of the diodes ...
