Microbit engineering design process 2

My idea for a step counter worked. i can make it so that every time the micro bit feels you move, it will increase the variable in it for the number of steps you’ve taken, then if you press the A button it will show a number corresponding with the number of steps it has detected. If you press the B button, it will reset the number of steps you’ve taken to zero. I wasn’t able to include a function that can calculate how many calories you’ve burned walking however, because the micro bit can only count one variable for at any time, not two. But other then that, the microbit has been a success so far.

My idea is a step counter that can be used for fitness. By using the motion sensors in the micro bit I could assign a step as a certain average distance and have the micro bit count every time it is moved that amount. So you can just were it on you while your walking or jogging and it can determine how many steps you’ve taken. I could also program one of the buttons to reset the step counter. And maybe I can even have another counter that can determine how many calories you’ve burn by comparing it to the number of steps you’ve taken.
