Awesome micro:bit

A BBC micro:bit with a Pimoroni inky:but electronic ink display showing a bar chart of tide height, an arrow to show if it's rising or falling and the temperature.

Blocks of code that make it work

A screen shot of today's tide times in Gwithian, Cornwall, where I am not.

I made a very rough tide clock using a BBC micro:bit and an eInk display. Updates every 5 minutes, battery-powered, fixed interval between tides of 6h 12m 30s, set by flashing code with the number of seconds between tides. Next steps: setting the tide remotely by radio! #microbit
