Micro:bit Virtual Parade

Yeah, another parade, five years after @schittering06 and I organized a Scratch Parade featuring floats made by Scratchers from all around the world. This time I organized it with @sciartistceleste and 21 people from nine countries joined to make a virtual parade with real robots that are all powered by the micro:bit.

We hope to inspire kids and adults around the world to get creative with coding and robotics! Thanks to all the participants who made it possible to make a Micro:bit Virtual Parade.

The micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer with which you can learn more about how software and hardware work together. It has a LED light display, buttons, sensors and many input/output features that, when programmed, let it interact with the outside world.

Please check out the website of the Micro:bit Foundation to learn more about the micro:bit:

The micro:bit can also be used as a controller for Scratch projects, using one of the Scratch extensions. Please find lots of example projects in this studio:
