Day and Night Application With Mblock and Arduino

 Together with the Mblock program, we will make Night and Day Applications. When we run the Night and Day Application, which we made together with the Mblock program, when we press the letter "A" on the keyboard, a brighter scene decor will appear on the screen and the word "Gündüz" will appear and our LED will not light. When we press the letter "S", a darker stage decoration will appear next night and our LED will light up in the circuit we have created. We will make this application in the Mblock program. Before moving on to the codes, the list of materials to be stretched in our led circuit:

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.

Day and Night Application With Mblock and Arduino

Now let's come to our codes in mBlock; City with water (the dark one) city with water 2 (the bright one) in the Mblock backdrop library as a scene decor.

Mblock and Arduino examples


I added a sprites to the scene.

Mblock and Arduino codes


The code part is as follows:



When the "a" key is pressed on the keyboard, switch to the bright decor (we add it from the Looks menu) and we do not turn on our led with the code to set the digital pin 8 low (we add it from the Robots menu) and the speech bubble called dummy Day appears (we add it from the Looks menu). When the "S" key is pressed, it will switch to the dark decor, and by making the digital pin 8 high, we make it light up. We make the sprites think it's night. In order to run these codes, after connecting our arduino board and circuit to the computer with a usb cable, we first select the Serial port from the Connect menu, then select the port to which our arduino board is connected. After selecting it, we will upload the codes we wrote with the firmware update from the connect menu again to our arduino board. Thus, our program becomes ready to run.


 To download the source code of the program CLICK HERE

To download the source code of the program CLICK HERE  (This program ise done with mblock 5 version)

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.





First of all, we add the upload mode broadcast extension from the extensions section to be able to use the sprite. So we can send any message to the sprite we will use. we add the same plugin with sprite selected



After adding the arduino uno from the devices section, we write the following codes in it. We turn on or off the led according to the message from the sprite.



When the "a" key is pressed on the keyboard, switch to the bright decor  and we do not turn on our led with the code to set the digital pin 8 low  and the speech bubble called daytime and sending a message to the arduino uno. If the value of the message is A. Day appears (we add it from the Looks menu). When the "s" key is pressed, it will switch to the dark decor and sending a message to the arduino uno. If the value of the message is S,

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...

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.

The circuit diagram is below. Now let's come to our codes in mBlock; 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 s...
