Blinking LED with Mblock and Arduino

 

We will blink the led with the mblock program. The list of materials that will be used in our led circuit before moving on to the codes of the application we will make with the Mblock program:

1-Arduino Uno

2-BreadBoard

3-LED

4-220Ω Resistor

5-Jumper Cables

We need supplies.

We add a 220 ohm resistor to the long leg of the Led that we added to our breadboard. We connect one leg of the resistor with a jumper cable to the digital pin 8 of our ardunio uno material (You can connect your jumper cable to any digital pin you want between 2-13). The circuit diagram is below.

Blinking LED with Mblock and Arduino


Now let's come to our codes in mBlock;


Mblock and Arduino examples

In the Mblock program, we add the Arduino program starter code from the Robots menu. After adding the forever from the control menu, we add the code to whichever digital pin we connected our led to the inside of the "Robots menu ... we add the code to make the pin low. We write 8 because I connect it to digital pin 8. We do not light our led with the code of set digital pin 8 to low. After 1 seconds We make the digital pin no. high and make it light up. This event will be repeated constantly. In order to run these codes, after connecting our arduino board and circuit to the computer with a usb cable, first we select the Serial port from the Connect menu, let's choose the port to which our arduino board is connected from there. From the boards menu, Arduino Uno( or choose which board you are using) After selecting, select the Arduino mode from the Edit menu and click the Upload to Arduino button, we will send the codes we have written to our Arduino board and upload them. Thus, our program becomes ready to run.

Note: You can upload the codes to the arduino uno board by pressing the connect and upload buttons at the bottom of the screen respectively.





In the Mblock program, we add the Arduino uno starts up code from the Events menu. After adding the forever from the control menu, we add the code to whichever digital pin we connected our led to the inside of the "Pin menu" we add the code to make the pin low. We write 8 because I connect it to digital pin 8. We do not light our led with the code of set digital pin 8 to low. After 1 seconds We make the digital pin no. high and make it light up. This event will be repeated constantly.

How to Make Countdown a Maze Game on Scratch

  We will make a countdown maze game example with Scratch. For the countdown maze game example we will make with Scratch, we upload the maze picture we downloaded to our computer from the scene section to the scratch program. Then we select the object that we will move in the maze section from the choose a sprite section and add it to our scene. We bring the object to be moved to the red point, which is the starting point. First of all, we create a variable named Duration to calculate the elapsed time in the maze from the "Variables" menu When you click the green flag, set the duration variable to 40. Our goal is to get the ball to the finish line in 40 seconds. If our ball object to move, we give the x and y coordinates to go to the red starting point. Our object will not move only once. First of all, we add the "Forever" code from the "Control" menu so that it moves every time we press the arrow key. Now it's time to check which direction key is pres...
