Story

AnnoyingPluto

This is my childhood stuffed animal Pluto, as a kid I would get upset if Pluto was tipped over and not sitting upright. I decided to program the CPX to make an annoying sound if he gets tipped over, modifying the SimpleTilt program in MakeCode.

My protest object is a stuffed animal that makes an annoying sound when tipped in any direction. I used a stuffed animal Pluto for the housing of the CPX. I cut a whole in the back of Pluto and then placed the CPX inside (level to the ground) then sowed him back up. Once the CPX was inside you could push Pluto over in any direction to make an annoying sound.

(Sound Warning)

Code

Simple Tilt Code

input.onGesture(Gesture.TiltLeft, function () {
    light.showRing(
    `yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow black black black black black`
    )
    for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
        music.playTone(Note2, music.beat(BeatFraction.Half))
        Note2 += 30
        light.clear()
    }
})
input.onGesture(Gesture.TiltDown, function () {
    light.showRing(
    `black black black purple purple purple purple black black black`
    )
    for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
        music.playTone(Note2, music.beat(BeatFraction.Half))
        Note2 += -30
        light.clear()
    }
})
input.onGesture(Gesture.TiltUp, function () {
    light.showRing(
    `white white black black black black black black white white`
    )
    for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
        music.playTone(Note2, music.beat(BeatFraction.Half))
        Note2 += 30
        light.clear()
    }
})
input.onGesture(Gesture.TiltRight, function () {
    light.showRing(
    `black black black black black blue blue blue blue blue`
    )
    for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
        music.playTone(Note2, music.beat(BeatFraction.Half))
        Note2 += -30
        light.clear()
    }
