Micro:bit image examples

Here we show you how to create a custom image on the led matrix, we use the Mu editor

[codesyntax lang=”python”]

from microbit import *
im = Image(‘99999:90009:90009:90009:99999:’)
display.show(im)

[/codesyntax]

You can vary the brightness by changing the value of the digits from 0 – 9.

[codesyntax lang=”python”]

from microbit import *
im = Image(‘99999:96369:96369:96369:99999:’)
display.show(im)

[/codesyntax]

A simple animation example

[codesyntax lang=”python”]

from microbit import *

imgs = [
Image(‘90000:00000:00000:00000:00000:’),
Image(‘00000:09000:00000:00000:00000:’),
Image(‘00000:00000:00900:00000:00000:’),
Image(‘00000:00000:00000:00090:00000:’),
Image(‘00000:00000:00000:00000:00009:’)
]

display.show(imgs, delay=1000,loop=True)

[/codesyntax]
You can also set a pixel and move it around

[codesyntax lang=”python”]

from microbit import *

img = Image('00000:00000:00900:00000:00000:')
display.show(img)
sleep(1000)

while True:
img = img.shift_up(2)
display.show(img)
sleep(1000)
img = img.shift_right(2)
display.show(img)
sleep(1000)
img = img.shift_down(2)
display.show(img)
sleep(1000)
img = img.shift_left(2)
display.show(img)
sleep(1000)

[/codesyntax]
shift_left(n)

Return a new image created by shifting the picture left by n columns.

shift_right(n)

Same as image.shift_left(-n).
