Teleporting Heart

The Project

This project uses the radio feature of the microbit to make a heart icon appear to “teleport” between two microbits. When I shake one microbit, the heart icon disappears from it and appears on the other microbit. The same happens if I shake the second one — the heart moves back to the first microbit. I wrote separate codes for each microbit one acts as the sender, detecting the shake and sending a message, and the other acts as the receiver, displaying the heart icon when it receives that message. I was inspired by the idea of sending love or emotions wirelessly, like a digital hug or a small way to stay connected with someone. The most challenging part was making sure the communication was smooth and the heart didn't show on both microbits at the same time, but I really enjoyed figuring it out! Thank you for checking out my project!
