Workshop 5 - Micro:bit and the radio function
It's like this! Radio is an incredibly powerful way to send and receive messages, and the micro:bit can make great use of it. This workshop will show you how to take advantage of this fascinating feature.
Imagine the possibilities: you could create a “treasure hunt” game where micro:bits communicate with each other to find secret objects, or even make a simple communication system with a friend using your own micro:bits. The options are almost endless!
