The Magic 8 Ball project is a digital version of the classic fortune-telling toy, designed using a Micro:bit. It combines randomness and gesture detection to provide answers to the user’s questions. This project uses a simple yet effective code structure to deliver a fun and engaging experience. The core of the code lies in two important commands. The first is random.randint, which generates a random number between 1 and 8. This command ensures that the responses provided by the magic 8 ball are unpredictable and diverse. The second key command is if accelerometer.was_gesture('shake'), which detects when the Micro:bit is shaken. This gesture triggers the random number generation, making the experience interactive and tactile. When you shake the Micro:bit, it generates a random number corresponding to one of eight pre-programmed answers, which are displayed on the screen. Each number aligns with a classic Magic 8 Ball response, such as “Yes,” “No,” or “Ask Again Later.” The combination of randomness and gesture-based activation creates a dynamic user experience that mimics the real Magic 8 Ball in a digital format. This project showcases the power of simple coding commands to create interactive and fun applications. By leveraging the accelerometer and randomness, the Magic 8 Ball delivers a delightful and nostalgic experience, blending technology and creativity seamlessly.
