Step Counter with micro:bit
The Step Counter project allows users to transform their micro:bit into a pedometer, utilizing its built-in motion sensor (accelerometer) to count steps. This project is ideal for beginners looking to explore programming and hardware interaction.
Key Features:
- Step Tracking: Count steps by detecting shakes with the micro:bit.
- Variable Management: Learn to create and manipulate variables to store step counts.
- Interactive Learning: Engage with hands-on coding and testing using the micro:bit simulator.
Use Cases:
- Educational Tool: Perfect for teaching programming concepts in a fun and interactive way.
- Health Monitoring: Encourage physical activity by tracking steps taken throughout the day.
- STEM Projects: Integrate into broader STEM education initiatives focusing on technology and health.
