She explains that she has created an indoor-outdoor thermometer. A micro:bit uses its in-built temperature sensor to transmit the outside temperature to another micro:bit inside.

A new book - "Coding with the micro:bit – Create Cool Programming Projects" - teaches children how to use the BBC micro:bit. Update: The book has now been published, with an updated title After ...

The pocket-size device, called the micro:bit, contains a programmable array of LED lights, sensors, a Bluetooth chip and a meter that measures magnetic fields.

Recently, a highly sensitive and fast response optical strain sensor with two evanescently coupled optical micro/nanofibers (MNFs) embedded in a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) film is proposed.
