ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 15 September 2018

Our fully packed class this Saturday! 🙂

Edo is going to explore shell scripting today

So does Salman

Fadhlan, as always: got tons to do with the robot 🙂

while Sam is working so hard figuring out problem with his Plants vs Zombie remaking with GameMaker 🙂

And Sul is ready to explore Minecraft further, he’s going to find ways to connect Minecraft to the outside world 😉

Djalu, is so happy with creating games with GameMaker Studio 😉

Sam helped Djalu with some coding tricks

Faishal is also working on creating game with GameMaker. But next week he’s going to learn Python 😉

Our newcomer today: Harraz 🙂

Harraz jumped right away to creating games with GameMaker because we had problems with the internet: everybody is downloading or updating things 😀

Harraz is very excited 🙂

It is amazing how much Harraz can make on his first class 🙂 He created lots of sprites, and also backgrounds 🙂 The game will be finished very soon 🙂

and the other newcomer: Agham 🙂

Agham learned basic programming logics with Minecraft Hour of Code

Yaaay Agham completed this challenge 🙂

Agham started a new challenge 🙂

Kevin need some time to learn about basic components before continuing his robot

so today Kevin learned to create Traffic Light Simulator with Pedestrian Button 🙂

Yogi is getting better with the game he is making 🙂 He added lots of lines of codes to improve it 🙂

The game control is so smooth and the looks is so real 🙂

Yogi keeps adding details to the game, including the effects that makes it feels real

We’re so glad Ozan is here! We need his help to test the components to be used by Fadhlan’s robot 😉

Ozan had gone through almost all Arduino and ESPectro projects so he is the right person to help Fadhlan with the testing 😉

Kinan is still struggling with downloading and installing GameMaker Studio 2 🙂 She was given homework to learn from some video tutorials to catch up with how GameMaker Studio works differently compared to GameMaker 🙂

So many things unfinished today, due to downloading and installing and stuff 🙂 can’t wait until the next class and see how things work! 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Private Robotic Class – 15 Aug 2018

The exhibition is coming and we have to work really hard to finish this 🙂

We have modified the code hundred of times and still the robot didn’t move at all

We decided to add 4 AA batteries and change the development board

The layout needed some re-arrangement after we added more components and tested the motors. We checked everything: the power, the motors (both worked fine separately), the board, the cables, the driver. But still didn’t work.

We worked until it was dark and we had to call it a day and continue again the day after 🙂 We will find the problem and fix it! 🙂

ProCodeCG – 1 Day IoT Workshop – INIXINDO – 29 March 2018

It is a great honor today for ProCodeCG to be invited to give a workshop about IoT to one of the most prominent training center in Indonesia: INIXINDO 🙂

Preparation before the class

The stuff

The presentation

The class

Some screenshots of what we learned today

A great day with great persons! 🙂

Wishing to be able to collaborate with INIXINDO again very soon 🙂 Thanks so much for having us 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Arduino/ESPectro Programming and Open Topics – 20 Jan 2018

Our Saturday coding class 🙂

Cinta started to explore Python libraries for games

Faris helped Cinta to install and test PyGame

The code

Cinta is aiming to create something like this 🙂

Awa was given another project 🙂

to connect Minecraft to Arduino

we tried several ways but nothing worked

Neither this one 😦 We’re going to figure it out next time

Ain was given a task to collaborate with Awa. Ain should create the structures in Minecraft while Awa connect it to the hardware in the real world

Too bad it didn’t work yet so Ain continued his projects in Minecraft by creating more complex structures using Red Stone

Vian was still so interested in Minecraft Command Block

A tool to create command blocks

And we also had Danen 🙂

continuing his next game, Racing Car 🙂

Under the supervision of Capt. Azriel (blue jacket)

The game is almost done 🙂 Danen will finish it next week 🙂

Nafis was really busy doing a project for school: running text on a LCD

Capt. Azriel made sure he type every single line, because you had to type to code 😀

Al’s TLauncher needed to be updated so it took a while before he can start. Al learned more about looping and how to add different blocks in different colors in Minecraft with JavaScript

Ozan was still debugging his work, using Nafis’ code just to find out if it work

Capt. Faris continued our TensorFlow research

While also helping other kids

and exchanging ideas with Jundy 🙂

So much ideas and collaboration today 🙂 Can’t wait until next week 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Arduino/ESPectro Programming – 9 Dec 2017

This is what our Saturdays made of 🙂

Captains preparing the class 🙂 ProCodeCG doesn’t hire programmers. We raise them 🙂

These are (from left to right): Ain (going to start his first Captain duty on coding camp next week), Capt. Azriel, Tiga (Ain’s little brother) and Capt. Awa 🙂

Thanks so much for preparing the class 🙂 :*

Capt. Awa is in the middle of his project: building a radar system for navigation 🙂

He was going to disassemble an AroX robot and took some parts of it for his project

We’re going to use ultrasonic sensors and servo

And some codes, of course

Awa’s workplace 😀

After watching some tutorials, we decided to disassembly a microservo and modify it to be able to rotate 360 degrees continously

We had to cut something out of these gears

and put them altogether again

Well, this requires lots of patience and hard work 😉

Ozan was still investigating why the ultrasonic counter wouldn’t work with LCD

We’ve tried many configurations and codes

Even changed the LCD because this one wouldn’t turn on

There are days when things are so frustrating but we will keep working on it, yes Ozan? 😀

Even if we have to start all over again from the beginning 😀

The class

And a little coding mom reunion 🙂

It was such a perfect Saturday 🙂 Can’t wait to continue our research again next Saturday 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Arduino/ESPectro Programming – 2 Dec 2017

Hello hello!

Today we had three kids working on Arduino/ESPectro 🙂

Yes, Capt. Awa and his toolbox is back 😀

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js

Awa was planning to work on his radar project 🙂

While Ozan needed to install libraries and drivers for ESPectro because he was using different laptop 🙂 But he was working on ultrasonic with buzzer and light before attaching it to LCD

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js

The code

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js

Nafis was doing the same thing like Ozan was doing: making ultrasonic works with LED and buzzer and then attach the LCD

//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js

Nafis had some problem: his computer wouldn’t detect the port and we still hadn’t figured it out until the end of the class and we had to work on it next week 🙂

Awa got help from his mom and dad 🙂 A very nice family teamwork 🙂

And finally the servo worked 😀

As a dedicated captain, Awa spared sometime to fix broken cables 🙂

So proud and happy to have a Captain like this, thanks Capt. Awa 🙂 ❤

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Arduino/ESPectro Programming – 18 Nov 2017

Hello! Today we only have Koosha working on Arduino/ESPectro Programming but with lots of progress 🙂

Koosha came with a new project in mind 😀

He was working on an elevator project but today, apparently Koosha had something else in mind 😉

He’s going to assembly this RFID stuff

The code

The reading works

Successfully read from rfid card and rfid tag

And then successfully write to the card and tag too 😉

The code

Then adding an LCD 🙂 Still not working properly but we’re working on it 🙂

We’ll be reporting more progress next week 😉
