Parallax customer Joel Darbro sent us the following:
“I’d like to share a student’s 4H project that won Grand Champion at two fairs. Elsa Darbro built a marble machine powered by two Parallax Propeller Activity Board WX boards: one sorted and loaded marbles by color, while the other managed a 10×10 display of the 4H logo. She programmed everything in BlocklyProp Solo, and designed and 3D-printed all the components in Fusion 360. It’s a great example of how students are using BlocklyProp to create innovative projects—and winning recognition for their work!”
Congrats to Elsa and her excellent work with this project! Farmers are innovative people and could apply microcontrollers and BlocklyProp throughout their operations, especially young ones who learn with today’s tools!
