YouTube’s “Baby Shark Video” was strange, hypnotic, and wildly popular five years ago. People loved it or felt otherwise quite strongly, but I thought it was at least good enough to put on an ActivityBot 360.
The project was coded in BlocklyProp. The audio file was borrowed from YouTube and formatted with Audacity as a wav file to be played back by the Propeller 1 Multicore Microcontroller. The laser-cut acrylic shark is lit with WS2812 LEDs. The BlocklyProp reference has commands for all of these functions, including the servo motor control. The BlocklyProp reference is properly documented to create this project or similar ones on your own.
So, as summer approaches, be safe in the water!
