I made a sublist (based on the 20-items long list, you can read here), with those I find most funny. In quite a few of them, I can recognize myself and can laugh at myself. I think someone could turn them into a standup comic (sub-)routine ; - ) click to open/close (click for more details) open/close (click for more details) open/close (click for more details) open/close (click for more details) open/close (click for more details) It is formated so that the ones you happen to like can be opened and the rest of them closed. 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic ..read more

Running Snap! locally on Rasberry pi or embedded in html with gpio support. Any Progress? 4 posts - 2 participants Read full topic ..read more

This is by way of a "Hail Mary" regarding the Raspberry Pi. We created a Snap! arcade using a Raspberry Pi with SnapBridge linked to a micro:bit. This worked well until the Raspberry Pi folks updated the Raspberry Pi operating system, and in the process broke the ability of the Raspberry Pi 3 to operate a monitor in the portrait model. Since we had a proof-of-concept (we thought) that verified that this worked, we upgraded to the Raspberry Pi 4. The Raspberry Pi 4 works well with the monitor in the portrait mode, but now Snap!Bridge is laggy. John Maloney has been investigating the issue, but ..read more

We used the MicroBlocks "Key & Mouse" library to emulate arrow keys in a Snap! Pacman game. (A HyperDuino shield is being used with the Metro to make the physical connections.) In the 15-second video, the joystick is connected to a MetroM0 Express controller. The microcontroller translates movement of the joystick into the keypresses (arrow keys) that move the sprite in the Snap! game: https://cdn.forum.snap.berkeley.edu/original/3X/d/9/d93a31210c5d97c34204335525e2d15f0d83f2fe.mp4 Here's a link to a description of the MicroBlocks code: Dropbox Emulating Key Presses with MicroBlocks.docx S ..read more

Can anyone recommend a single-board computer for use in a dedicated physical computing project such as an arcade? The only requirements are that it (1) needs to run Snap! and (2) needs to have the capability to connect to a microcontroller such as the BBC micro:bit. 5 posts - 2 participants Read full topic ..read more

We would like to develop a table-top Snap! arcade. @bromagosa reported on development of one using a custom build of Linux in 2019: https://forum.snap.berkeley.edu/t/build-your-own-snap-arcade/ Have there been other developments since that time? There's a Windows mini-PC on Amazon for $100: Windows Mini-PC We're thinking of using something like that combined with an 8-inch LCD screen, but would not be adverse to using a Linux micromachine or a Raspberry Pi if someone is already working on a Snap! arcade for one of those platforms. We envision students creating the cabinet out of cardboard. The ..read more
