 Got your micro bit and looking for project ideas? Well in this tutorial we'll make a scratch micro bit fruit circuit We'll go from zero to hero and have those fruit pieces humming in harmony in no time coming up Hello world surfing scratcher here Teach yourself a programmer bringing you the goodness of learning to code through video tutorials So that sounds like something that you're into considering that subscribe button. All right. Here's what you're gonna need for this tutorial a Microbit that's powered by USB or a battery pack You need four alligator clips and cables. Hey, nice mustache Whoa, look out for paper clips. Bless you You need four pieces of fruit boom And of course scratch I've got all the tech materials set up in a kid on kid.com support this channel by checking the link in the description But hey, let's make some free shoes I've created this scratch micro bit simulator that will just display some feedback on the stage here But you can use an empty project. I've got a link to this simulator in the description below if you want to check it out Let's connect up our micro bit if you need some help with this I've got a card in the top corner for you right now to go check out All right, let's just have a little refresher on the pins We've got the pin zero here one and two that we can connect to we can also connect to the ground pin and when we have a Alligator clip or something connected to a pin number and the ground we complete a circuit So basically means that we're transferring energy in a circuit through the micro bit from the battery Let's make our first circuit. I've got this yellow alligator clip here that we're going to use to make our first circuit First let's connect to the ground All right, our alligator clip is now connected to the ground. Watch what happens when I touch the zero pin Boom pin zero connected. We can do the same thing for the other pins Now this just works on the simulator because I've already got it set up Now currently we've just got one cable here that we're using to complete our circuit We can introduce a second cable to help us out. Let's do that as you can see here I've got the ray cable connected to pin zero and the yellow cable connected to the ground now if we connected to ends of these cables We should have a completed circuit Yee-ha pins connected now if I go in and touch the ends of these two cables. We should have a completed circuit That's because I conduct electricity just like you all right We're going to attach these two paper clips to the ends of the alligator clips Cool now they're attached. We're just about ready to get our fruit involved I'm going to use a lemon and a kiwi fruit now What we need to do is get the ends of those cables with the paper clip and just insert them into the bits of fruit Now they're connected now when we touch the fruit with our hands. We should complete the circuit and we do Let's see what other fruit works. I've got some other fruits here to test. Let's try a strawberry Connected. Do you think the apple will work? No luck What about an orange? Connected Have a blueberry here No luck on the blueberry Lastly, I've got a potato Potato is flowing All right, let's connect the green and the black alligator clips to the other two pins Cool, let's just test those connections I've just gone attach some more fruit to our alligator clips now We've also got a strawberry that's on pin one and we've got the lemon that is on pin two Over in scratch, we can go to our micro bit categories and we can go find the hat blocks when the pins are connected We can just duplicate this twice So we have one for each pin and we can just go in and change which pin is connected I want you to jump into the music extensions Once you're in there, we're going to drag out these play note blocks Make sure you've got one for each pin and then go in and change the note Cool Then if we jump back over to micro bit, we can test out our sounds So remember, you need to have your hand on the crown switch Now I'm going to play the potato Let's play the strawberry And now the lemon Cool, you can go through and tap these and that's quite fun We'll park this tutorial there I've got some cards coming your way to show you some more interesting uses of our fruit And you can also check out the description Time for a scratchy question and I want to know if you tried some more fruit or vegetables Drop a comment in the section down below to let me know what worked or didn't work for you Hey, thanks for checking out this fruit circuit tutorial Like, subscribe, ring the bell if you're new around here and have a scout some other content on your screen right now Show your support for surfing scratch note by checking out exclusive content on my Patreon page My funky red bubble gear or by joining the mailing list all links below in the description But until then I'm off to go find a wave.
