Excellent work promotion coding and computer science #compsci @Oide_CompSci @microbit_edu @SGEducation__
Great start to Computer Science Week at @MounthawkMercy with 1st yr students Marcel & Fionn creating a Reading Range Guitar. By detecting the value of the distance between the ultrasonic sensor and the baffle, the buzzer then emits different tones @microbit_edu @elecfreaks 🎸👨🏻‍💻
