Alas, no

By "talk" we mean that the two robots can use Radio on the micro:bit to control one another. So when you show one robot the food, it transmits a radio signal to make the other robot move as well. More information here: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/makecode/program/16-1

Oi what's wrong with furries

We have a project page that details some of this here: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/projects/modeling-joints-with-robotics/

You need a hobby servo and a way to control it. In the video, a Hummingbird Controller is being used. Other than that, a box, some masking tape, and a stiff piece of wire are all you need. Check out the tutorial here for more instructions: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/build/crank/1-1

If you use the MakeCode programming environment, the code will be downloaded to the Hummingbird and it will run without a tablet/computer. You will need to recreate your program in MakeCode. Here's a link to our programming tutorials for MakeCode: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/makecode/program/1-1

It is the position servo that is being used to open/close the mouth, FS5103B, and you can use a Hummingbird Bit controller to control it. Position servos are included in our Hummingbird Bit Base and Premium kits - but the base kit has a small position servo, the FS90 (which is still sufficient to open/close the mouth). Building materials like cardboard are not included in our kits.

Here is some example code for moving a servo back and forth: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/makecode/program/6-6 The angles you set the servo to might be different based on your robot - in the example it moves from 90 to 180 degrees and back.

@@Birdbraintechnologies42 Thank you so much

Finch ships from Pittsburgh, USA if you order direct from BirdBrain Technologies. You can get them in Canada from a variety of resellers as well: support.birdbraintechnologies.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003752213-Do-you-ship-internationally-

Thanks!!

Hi Artie - the Finch can make music with its built-in speaker, but only simple tones like you might hear in a 1980s video or arcade game. The Finch's programming environments do let you play music from connected computers and tablets though. More information here: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/finch/birdblox/8-1

Yes, and there are many programming tutorials on our website at: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/program/

Check out our programming tutorials or self-paced video courses - both Snap! and BirdBlox programming environments allow you to control the Hummingbird with Bluetooth: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/snap/program/1-1 learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/professional-development/video-courses/hummingbirdbit/

Please reach out to our support team - support@birdbraintechnologies.com - they can help you out with this.

We have a tutorial on fractals and recursion that walks you through how to make the code here: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/finch/python/program/lesson-15-finch-fractals

If you are using the Hummingbird Bit robotics kit to control the servo, you can use our programming app, BirdBlox, to control the mouth and other servos connected to the Hummingbird. Here's our tutorial on BirdBlox: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdbit/birdblox/1-1

Yes it does - you can see our Arduino instructions here: learn.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbirdduo/arduino/ Please note that these instructions pertain to the Hummingbird Duo, available here: store.birdbraintechnologies.com/collections/hummingbird-duo The newer version of the kit, the Hummingbird Bit is built around the micro:bit, and does not work with Arduino.

We no longer have access to that document. The Hummingbird kit comes with a broad range of learning materials, all free to access. Check out our Start Teaching page to begin: www.birdbraintechnologies.com/hummingbird-start-teaching/ If you're looking specifically for materials to present Hummingbird to other educators, please email us at info@birdbraintechnologies.com and tell us about your plans!
