Become your own weather expert or create an awesome, interactive weather science project with Pimoroni's enviro:bit for micro:bit! This add - on board is loaded with sensors to graph and visualize your weather data. The TCS3472 sensor makes detecting colors and measuring light a breeze. The BME280 helps you measure temperature, air pressure, and humidity, while the MEMS microphone can pick up sounds. Just slide the enviro:bit into the micro:bit slot. If you're using MakeCode, install the enviro:bit package and start exploring. For more advanced users or those interested in MicroPython, check out the Mu code editor! Key features include being fully - assembled and ready to use, having a BME280 sensor for temperature, pressure and humidity, a TCS3472 light and color sensor, a MEMS microphone, compatibility with micro:bit, support for Microsoft MakeCode and MicroPython, and no soldering needed!
Using the Pimoroni enviro:bit for micro:bit is super easy. First, slide the enviro:bit into the micro:bit slot. If you're using MakeCode, install the enviro:bit package. Then you can start collecting data from the sensors right away. If you want to use MicroPython, open the Mu code editor. When using the product, make sure it's in a stable environment to get accurate readings. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or high humidity for a long time. To maintain it, keep it clean and free from dust. If you're not using it for a while, store it in a dry place. That's all you need to know to make the most of your enviro:bit!
