Make your micro:bit see the light. Explore the micro:bit’s built in light sensor and learn how it detects and measures changes in light levels. Together we will program the micro:bit to react to different light levels to work as a sunlight sensor or a nightlight.

Level:  Getting Comfortable – For participants who have completed some beginner activities and are ready to explore additional features. 

Topics that will be covered are:

  • Make your microbit react to light by using the light sensor
