A photoresistor (or light-dependent resistor, LDR, or photocell) is a light-controlled variable resistor. The resistance of a photoresistor decreases with increasing incident light intensity; in other words, it exhibits photoconductivity. …

The BBC micro:bit does not have a dedicated temperature sensor. Instead, the temperature provided is actually the temperature of the silicon die on the main CPU. So not a perfect …

I like the Micro:Bit, its a nice little compact board with plenty of features with a couple of development options such as Python, C++ and block editors. One of the …

The micro:bit also has a compass (magnetometer) The compass has to be calibrated before it can give accurate readings. Calibration involves moving a dot to make a circle on the …
