Microsoft MakeCode extension for use with micro:bit CreateAI

This extension is leveraged by micro:bit CreateAI which creates suitable blocks based on the machine learning model you build in the app. It is not useful separate from micro:bit CreateAI.

Building locally

Ensure you have the required toolchain to build for V1 and V2 (arm-none-eabi-gcc, python, yotta, cmake, ninja, srec_cat) or docker.

git clone https://github.com/microbit-foundation/pxt-microbit-ml
cd pxt-microbit-ml
npm install pxt --no-save
npx pxt target microbit --no-save
npx pxt install
PXT_FORCE_LOCAL=1 PXT_NODOCKER=1 npx pxt

For the V1 build Yotta can hit the GitHub rate limits quite easily if the project is built from a clean state more than once. A V2-only build can be performed with the PXT_COMPILE_SWITCHES=csv---mbcodal environmental variable.

PXT_FORCE_LOCAL=1 PXT_NODOCKER=1 PXT_COMPILE_SWITCHES=csv---mbcodal npx pxt

Build flags

Model predictions per second

By default the model will run every 250 ms, to change this value the ML_INFERENCE_PERIOD_MS config can be modified.

{
  "yotta": {
    "config": {
      "ML_INFERENCE_PERIOD_MS": 250
    }
  }
}

Debug messages

To enable debug print from this extension, add the following into your pxt.json file:

{
  "yotta": {
    "config": {
      "ML_DEBUG_PRINT": 1
    }
  }
}
