Remote Control Data Collection

Get with your Final Project Partner

Two micro:bits can be used to collect and record data using the radio commands. One micro:bit can be setup remotely and the other micro:bit can be used to observe the data. The first micro:bit can send the data it observes to the second micro:bit for the observer to record.

TIP: To set up 2 micro:bits so they can communicate over the radio they need to be on the same radio group.
