Implementation of interactive art exhibits based on synthesis of light using micro:bits

Abstract

"In this study, I explore the possibility of using a micro:bit as a physical computer for use in secondary physics education. First, I discuss the need to pay attention to micro:bits in physics education. Also, I illustrate that for subject of RGB-based light synthesis, the rich educational contents can be obtained using micro:bits. In this process, I first introduce a method of implementing any color included in the color triangle by utilizing micro:bits. Also, I implement interactive art exhibits based on RGB-based light synthesis through micro:bits. Through this, I exemplify that the learning threshold required to learn the functions of micro:bits is relatively low, but the output that can be implemented through micro:bits can be very high. The educational contents developed in this study can be used in the context of in-depth education related to RGB-based light STEAM convergence education. ? 2021 The Korean Physical Society.
