Class activity - extending the human experience ? (wearable technology)
in groups of two, explore an interaction between two people using two microbits
So the idea is to take an existing platform and transform it, say lazer tag technology, turned into a form of communication such as morse code.

examples could be:
emoticon = showing emotion on the LED
game console = playing a multiplayer game in a space (think of the pong at the traffic lights)
remote control device = control a device with the gyroscope (light, motor etc)
sensor light = proximity sensor, which vibrates, to tell if someone OR somthing is standing behind you.
voting = voting on if you like someone or not
the polution sensor ( mask that goes over your face )
light sensor to tell if its day or night outside
