BBC Micro:bit data visualization

Instalation of libraries

pip uninstall serial
pip install flask pyserial

*Pre-installed library "serial" works differently

Usage

Setting up local server

$ python Main.py
[-]: Aviable serial ports:
[Com1, Com7, ...]
Enter ID:

You have to enter witch Com. you want to use, starting from 1

Then, local server will start, usually at 127.0.0.1:5000

Setting up BBC Micro:bit

In BBC_Codes Folder is a .hex file for Micro:bit and source code in python
This script is adjustable for as many lines of data as you need
You have to loop them like this:

def on_forever():
    serial.write_line("xAXIS: " + ("" + str(input.acceleration(Dimension.X))))
    serial.write_line("yAXIS: " + ("" + str(input.acceleration(Dimension.Y))))
    serial.write_line("zAXIS: " + ("" + str(input.acceleration(Dimension.Z))))
    serial.write_line("TEMP: " + ("" + str(input.temperature())))
    serial.write_line("LightLevel: " + ("" + str(input.light_level())))
    serial.write_line("SoundLevel: " + ("" + str(input.sound_level())))
    serial.write_line("Test: " + ("" + str(input.sound_level())))
    serial.write_line("END")
    basic.pause(100)
basic.forever(on_forever)

This "END" line is most important to be last one This have to be in LOOP

Timing and configuration

In Micro:bit script, there has be a timeout after sending "END" line

*1 000 MS = 1S

in Main.py, line 8 and 9

HowManyVariablesIncoming = 7 How many lines is incoming in one loop before "END"
refreshTime = 0.1 Your timeout
