    Strawbees Team

    Wearable technology is portable devices worn on the body. Use both RGB LEDs on the Robotics board and the display of 5×5 LED matrix on the micro:bit as a response to the light sensors. Express with moving icons and signals of light to react as a way to light the night. Control LEDs as playful animations using RGB LEDs to mix an assortment of colors, program various patterns to blink or fade and animate between different images on the 5×5 matrix for dynamic visuals.
