DIY Thermometer

Thanks to the Kids Innovative ambassador, Alicia, who wanted to show everyone the coding instructions for the micro:bit thermometer.

The micro: bit integrates multiple features in its board which can be activated by programming the code, then transferring the .hex file to the chip. The micro:bit has a sensor in the central processing unit which can measure the estimated air temperature in °C (Celsius). This can also be converted into Fahrenheit.

Here’s the code:

What you’ll need:

  • computer / iOs device (use app)

  • a micro:bit

  • USB adapter to connect the micro:bit
