The programming environment »Open Roberta Lab« by Fraunhofer IAIS enables children and adolescents to program robots. A variety of different programming blocks are provided to program motors and sensors of the robot. Open Roberta Lab uses an approach of graphical programming so that beginners can seamlessly start coding. As a cloud-based application, the platform can be used without prior installation of specific software but runs in any popular browser, independent of operating system and device.
This issue is to request the addition of a new plugin to support the Calliope V3 microcontroller in Open Roberta Lab. The new Calliope V3 is released with new features.
This feature request is important for enhancing the usability of Open Roberta Lab, to accommodate for working with Calliope V3 devices.
Details:
Microcontroller Model: Calliope V3
Main Ideas:
Integration of Calliope V3 new features in the Open Roberta Lab interface.
Support for programming Calliope V3 using the visual block-based programming language.
Compatibility with existing Open Roberta Lab features, such as simulation and code compilation.
Proposed Solution:
Develop a new plugin specifically for Calliope V3 support.
Ensure thorough testing and documentation to guarantee a smooth user experience.
Some of The New Features:
3 RGB-LEDs controlled together or separately
Record speech and sound, and set volume
Connect a wide variety of modules in series with the Jacdac connectors
Logo touch pin
Pin header modified to make it easy to connect motors and extensions
Capacitive and Resistive touch modes for pins
The reset button can be pressed three times to activate the Bluetooth mode
Calliope mini V3 can be programmed using MicroPython
[x] Check apabilities
[x] Add firmware reset file/hex
[x] Add code generation (MicroPython)
[x] Add code -> hex generation
[x] Add configuration, same than for Calliope Mini V2, but updating Callibot to Callibot 2
[ ] Add tests
[x] Add simulation
[x] Add background image
[x] Add configuration image / front view in simulation
[x] Add preview image for the start page
[x] Add toolboxes
[x] Add wiki entries/help files: english, german
[x] Write documentation on how to work with Calliope V3
[x] Check and add program transfer possibilities
