Hi everyone,
Would anyone like to help me put together a microbit session for the PyCon UK teachers' day using motion sensors? My plan is to use python on the microbit to illustrate some motion-related maths/physics principles from accelerometer/gyroscope data. Ideally we would prepare some exercises with direct relevance to classwork that teachers could take back to their students and use right away. So if you know microbits and are keen to help, get in touch! If you are a teacher with ideas you'd to implement, or you know teachers with ideas, then get in touch too. The deadline for proposals is in 2 weeks... Cheers Stephen P.S. I have also submitted a proposal on sensor fusion algorithms for the main PyCon UK conference, using MetaWear PRO wearables. They can transmit 9-axis accelerometer/gyroscope/magnetometer data over Bluetooth in real time. The microbit, as I understand it (mine will arrive in 2 weeks...) doesn't have enough memory to load Python and Bluetooth together. So we will have to be more creative about logging/retrieving results. Plenty of time to work through this in July/August. First step is the proposal.... _______________________________________________ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk
