ProCodeCG – Private Training – Data Acquisition with ESPectro – Day #1 – 15 May 2017

Today we had a training on gathering data from sensors using DHT11 and MLX90614 using ESPectro development board 🙂

Setting up before the class started

We used two different computers to make sure we can do lots of things simultaneously 🙂

we also have to make sure we have reliable internet connection and a toolbox full of anything we might need 😉

we tested MLX90614 with Arduino

and it worked. Next we will use ESPectro to be able to send the data via cloud 🙂

We’re going to use the sensors to measure battery temperature

We’re going to use multiple sensors to measure multiple batteries, so we’ve got lots of things to do, and will continue the training on Wednesday 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Minecraft Modding, Java Programming, GameMaker, Intro to Programming – 13 May 2017

The Open Topics Class 😉

Raihan learned Intro to Programming and GameMaker today 🙂

He learned basic programming with Scratch/Blockly-like programming

Raihan finished it in one hour

and got the online certificate yaay congrats! Then he started to learn how to create simple game with GameMaker 🙂

Cinta (green shirt) was working on Minecraft and Apps Programming today 🙂

Cinta teamed up with Nanin (yellow hijab) and create things  🙂

These girls 🙂 Do things together 🙂

Nanin created lots of things today 🙂

There were some problems with her Minecraft settings

and luckily ka Jundy helped her 🙂 Thanks J 😉

While J himself created amazing things today 🙂

He created elevator with piston and teleport 🙂

The 2 levels building with elevator

And then J improved it to have more levels with different colors

so that we’ll know when we have being teleported to different levels of the building  😉

Great job, J! Brilliant idea. Next is to do this with JavaScript coding 🙂

Gyan was on creating triangle in JavaScript

Gyan, Vian and Jundy working on the same server

This is the code they have to type

Vian was very excited as always 🙂

A lovely scene 🙂

Rheino had finished his triangle code in JavaScript

and run in in Minecraft 😉

the next challenge for Rheino is to change the pattern of the colors 😉

Rheino helped a newcomer, Rezky 🙂

Rezky was doing an intro to programming and had finished the One Hour Code Minecraft

and got the certificate 🙂

Well, lots of achievement today! So glad 🙂

*off the picture: Raul was working on Snake Game in Java and worked well. We are going to add more food and displaying some score. Dika was working on To-Do-List App with Thunkable 🙂

 

 

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – ESPectro Programming – 13 May 2017

Hello! ESPectro Programming Class today 🙂

Muhammad had to catch up, he picked up where he left: connecting to wifi with ESPectro and display the data of wifi 🙂

Muhammad was so excited to find out that he can display the details of a wifi he connected to. Next is to scan the available wifi and display the details, including the security and signal strength 🙂

Nafis was very happy to be able to turn on his neopixels and change their colors 🙂

Nafis learned to set the neopixels individually too

So he can set different colors for each neopixel (the color was red, green and blue). And later he changed it into a more specific colors like sky blue, baby pink etc. 😀

Rafi started to connect his ESPectro to LCD I2C today. He was a bit confused because he had connected LCD I2C to Arduino before, and didn’t know how to do it with ESPectro, which was lots easier 🙂

Yep, it worked right away 🙂

Then Rafi learned how to display custom characters on LCD

Like this simple smiley

And later he created a simple animation, from smiling smiley to sad smiley 😉 We planned to make more animation next week 🙂

Raul was working on displaying simple custom chars too 🙂

 

He was asked to create a battery icon

and he did 🙂 He was working on make it animating like charging and discharging 😉 How interesting! Can’t wait to see the progress next week 🙂

Whoaa we had the Godfather there to, working on his own very advanced project 😉

The class! ❤ ❤ ❤

See you next week 🙂

 

 

ProCodeCG codeMeetUp() #104 – BR – Acer CloudProfessor

ProCodeCG is where we can learn the most recent technology 🙂 Today Professor BR taught us a bit about Acer CloudProfessor 🙂

Acer CloudProfessor (black little box) connected to a powerback (white, bigger box), surrounded with devboards, connectors, and sensors.

One of our cutest audience 🙂

The audience (a few more came later)

Yaaay, more moms and kids 🙂

The ide of CloudProfessor inspired by MicroProfessor – MPF-01

Acer CloudProfessor connected to RGB LED to be controlled remotely via a smartphone

The code

Lots of things can be done with different sensors

Several sensors connected to an Arduino Leonardo with a stack-up I2C connectors

Working easily 🙂

A brilliant example: CPF Ramen Cooler 😀 It will detect the temperature of a bowl of ramen and activate fan to cool it off 😀

Bluetooth technlogy

A demo of compiling and running the code

Very few people know about this latest technology, and those attending this short lecture today will surely a few steps ahead 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Minecraft Modding, Java Programming

Our Minecraft Modding and Java Programming Class yesterday 🙂

J! Back with lots of ideas 🙂

He’d been working on Minecraft Project with Faris and recently he had things to be discussed with Clarence 🙂

J has created lots of things in Minecraft, including those advanced things with red stone

He showed us lots of things 🙂

This is how J look like when he’s working on something 🙂 Looks like he was playing a game

He was actually developing something with redstone [Redstone is a fictional mineral in the video game Minecraft, acting as electrical wire to build electronic circuits, circuitry gates, pistons, dispensers, and other machines. – Wikipedia]

It is some kind of automated machine do shoot things (bullets or arrows)

J is challenged to create this with JavaScript coding 😉

Raul (looking away, holding a smartphone, was taking a break for a while 😀 ) had finished creating a simple game in Java

The game is to catch a randomly moving object and when it’s clicked then you’ll win or get some points 🙂

Tyo was working on the same thing as Raul’s 🙂

This is Tyo’s, he chose cupcake for the object 😀

Tyo has also finished the other game to click a randomly moving button 🙂

This is what Clarence has built in Minecraft! He has a totally cool Minecraft World/City. And being challenged to create such complex things with coding 😉

Vian was still so into command blocks 🙂

Danesh was still trying to adapt with Scriptcraft server

loads of happiness every Saturday 🙂

Admiring this one! He came to the class by bike! From far away! Keep up the spirit J, proud! 😉 :* ❤

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – ESPectro Programming – 7 May 2017

ESPectro Programming class yesterday 🙂

Clarence had a some interesting thing to show us, like usual 🙂

He created a clock that is synchronized to internet with ESPectro and TFT display. This one is before connected to the internet.

This time when it’s connected to the internet and synchronized

Rafi missed several classes so he had to keep up and started with connecting to wifi using ESPectro

He was so glad to be able to scan and display the details of every available networks 🙂

He turned on teethering on his smartphone

and see it on the list 🙂 The signal is -47dBm which is quite strong 🙂

Ozan was keeping up with LCD display 🙂

After installing some libraries and fix some error, Ozan finally able to send text to be displayed on LCD 🙂

Farrell was back 🙂

He insisted to continue his SSTV project 🙂

Ren and Mom 🙂

Ren finished up two tasks

displaying custom chars to LCD

and displaying the info of wifi connected to 🙂

Danesh was still catching up with button to serial code 🙂

Raul finished 2 tasks

displaying custom chars

and displaying wifi info

and this one refused to leave the class eventhough all stuff had been returned to the storage room 😀

See you all kids, next Saturday 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Minecraft Modding, Java Programming, Apps Programming – 29 Apr 2017

A cat

A rabbit

even a diamond! 🙂 next time we will try to generate this with coding 🙂

Capt. Cinta and Capt. Syahna: a good teamwork 🙂

They’re given the task to assist Nanin 🙂

Nanin was the youngest and she learns from her seniors 🙂

Nanin created a speech recognition app 🙂

When things don’t work, Ka Syahna / Ka Cinta will help Nanin to find out what is wrong 🙂

Debugging work 🙂

While Ka Syahna debugging, Ka Cinta teaches Nanin other things 🙂

And when Nanin hadn’t been picked up, we’ll be there to accompany her 🙂

Dika was working on a Calculator App

While Jundy set up a ScriptCraft server so the other kids can join and learn scripting together

J is a fast learner

He will be given more responsibility to assist his friends 😉

Vian logged in to J’s server to learn

Koosha and Dad still struggling with Mac setup 🙂

 

Raul was working on Java Chatting App 🙂 So did Tyo (not in the pic). Tyo had successfully conduct chatting with different computers 🙂

The class 🙂

It’s a great thing that we always learn something new while also making friends and having fun every week 🙂
