Lesson 1
Voting System Tools
1. 1 Let's make a VST (Voting System Tools)
Let’s make traffic light with In this lesson, we will use CyberPi to form a LAN and then
run a poll. And only we, in this classroom, can vote. So, how do we make a voting
system with CyberPi and mBlock? First, we need an initiator to start a poll. Then, the
rest of us will be voters. When the voting session closes, the initiator counts the votes.
So, initiator will send out options, and voters will give vote, and initiator collect the
votes and check the results, so right now we know the basic concept of VST. Then
how’d we build this with mBlock 5? To build this system you need LAN, Timer, and
Variable.

Lesson 2
Make a Block
2.1 Make a Block
When we write a program, sometimes we repeat some similar program and make it
looked long. To simplify this problem, MBlock application provide block to create
“duplicate program”or subroutine and call them “make a block”.
In general, the “original calling program” is called “Main Program” and the “called
program” is called “subroutine”. We can imagine “subroutine” as phone contact number.
When we need to call someone, we can search for phone number based on contact name
that we save. Subroutine has same process as phone contact number. We can pass
“actual parameter” when call the subroutine, then it will use as “local parameter” in
subroutine. When subroutine is done, the main program continue to next line program.
Example :
The program from the previous lesson is shortened and simplified using Make a Block

Step to create a block :
Function
Make a new block using Data Command
Create name of block (recommended to not use
space or symbol). We can add some parameter
like number, string, and boolean input.
Result
Block to call program

Lesson 3
Artificial Intelligence
3.1 Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Artificial intelligence (AI), the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot
to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings. The term is frequently
applied to the project of developing systems endowed with the intellectual processes
characteristic of humans, such as the ability to reason, discover meaning, generalize, or
learn from past experience. CyberPi has an AI feature, CyberPi’s AI can to auto-recognize
human speech and translate a language.
Before you use AI feature, you need connect your CyberPi to the internet :

Lesson 4
IoT (Internet of Things)
4.1 Internet of Things
The Internet of things (IoT) describes the network of physical objects—“things”—that are
embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies for the purpose of connecting
and exchanging data with other devices and systems over the Internet. In future, there
will be intelligent applications for smarter homes and offices, smarter transportation
systems, smarter hospitals, smarter enterprises and factories. IOT can provide several
Block
advantages in Retail and supply chain management (SCM) operations.
