Overview
This video will teach you how to attach a button and a buzzer to an Arduino Uno and a micro:bit. We'll work through the code in C for the Arduino and block code for micro:bit to create a custom timer. Using the buttons, you can set your timer up and set it to go. The Arduino and micro:bit will set off the buzzer when the set time is reached.
What You Will Learn
- Attach hardware such as buttons and buzzers to the Arduino and micro:bit
- Code your hardware
- Incorporate loops and pauses in your code
- Set up a beep test timer
- Use the timer for home exercises
Who This Video Is For
Anyone interested in making a timer for exercise, cooking, or any other use. Parents wanting to code with their kids or adults looking for real-life uses for their Arduino and micro:bit can use this video for a fun at-home project.
