Sense the world around you with enviro: bit! It's loaded with sensors for air and weather, colour and light, and sound, and slots right onto your micro: bit.

Just slot in your micro: bit, then code enviro: bit with the block-based Microsoft MakeCode editor, or with MicroPython in the Mu code editor. The sensors go hand-in-hand really well with the LED matrix on the micro: bit, letting you graph sensor readings or have the LEDs react to sound, for example.

Features

• Comes fully-assembled and ready to use
• BME280 temperature, pressure, and humidity sensor
• TCS3472 light and colour sensor
• MEMS microphone
• Compatible with micro: bit and micro: bit v2
• Microsoft MakeCode and MicroPython support
• No soldering is required!

Software 

You can code enviro: bit with the block-based Microsoft MakeCode editor, which'll get you started with using the sensor readings from enviro: bit, if you want to delve deeper, then you can use MicroPython in the Mu code editor.

To add the enviro: bit library in MakeCode, click on the cog at the top right-hand corner, then "Add Package", then search for "enviro bit". You can find full instructions in the GitHub repository for the library.

Our MicroPython library for enviro: bit is also available on GitHub, again with full instructions on how to get going with it.
