I propose to add Speaker.beep, Speaker.volume and play tone blocks also to Core2

I would like to save my UIFlow program in the cloud (M5 account) or at least in web browser storage.
Like in MakeCode the program is autosaved at every change. The autosave is a very important feature when you work with kids.

Later, when the user open again UIFlow, instead of an empty project he should see the list of his projects and a button to create a new project.

Can you please add also the Speaker.beep, Speaker.volume and play tone blocks to Core2 as well?

I made the Circuitpython porting for several M5Stack devices:
Go to the Circuitpython download page and burn the firmaware directly from your browser

I have made all ports excepts the M5Stamp C3. More are coming!!

I need to record the audio from stick-c internal microphone and I want to use python.
I found a couple of examples that show how to play the audio in python via I2S internal dac:

• Play WAV Files on Your M5Stack
• M5Stack RFID Face Wav Playing Flashcard Program

Instead I can't find anything in python for recordind audio via the integrated microphone. I found an example for Arduino but I don't know how to port it in python.

Can anyone help me?

In my point of view it would be great to have an M5 core with the ESP32-S2.
The S2 variant has the USB-OTG, and with the right bootloader (TinyUF2 Bootloader), it can expose the internal flash as a USB drive. No more AMPY or custom tools to updload files on the core. We would be able to use the Mu editor on the same easy way as we can do with the Micro:bit.

Last but not least, there is already a port of Adafruit CircuitPython for the ESP32-S2. CircuitPython is very well documented with tons of library alredy written for it.
I find easier to work with CircuitPython than MicroPython.

Let's look for example how CircuitPython handle the audio:

• It use the same libraries regardless of the porting
• It has support for reading MP3 files
• You can choose to use a PWM or an I2S output
• There are plenty of examples

@ajb2k3 said in M5 Stamp C3 -> No Usage in UIFLOW ?!?!:

Correct.
The C3 uses a RISCV core where as the rest of the range uses the ESPcore. The RISCV core has issues with Micropython which is the core of UIFLow.

Currently UI flow use an old version of Micropython that do not support ESP32-C3
The next major release of UIFlow is suppose to suuport ESP32-C3

Core2 has both an I2S speaker and an I2S microhone like the Atom Echo Smart. Can you please add the Echo STT functionality for the Core2 as well?

I'm trying to use the lvgl canvas on the Core2 with UIFlow V1.7.4.
I'm using the following test program:

import lvgl as lv

lv.init()

scr = lv.obj()
cv = lv.canvas(scr, None)

lv.load_scr(lv)

but when it try to create the canvas it raise the following error:
'NoneType' object has no attributes'__deference__'

Can anyone help me?

On the microbit there is this nice feature that use the IMU to detect some gestures or events. For example there is a block to detect if the microbit is falling or if it got hit at different G forces.
This is the microbit makecode block:

I think that it would be nice to have a similar block in UIFlow

Micropython 1.12 does not support ESP32-C3. Current UI Flow is based on that version therefore at the moment M5Stack can not add support to M5Stamp C3.
The next UIFlow version, 2.0, is base on Micropython 1.17 which support ESP32-C3, but M5Stack said that we are a couple of month away from the release of UIFlow 2.0

I found a bug in the firmaware when a programs draws lots of lines and the SD card is plugged in.
This is my test program:

import m5
from m5 import lcd

m5.begin()

def lines_show(color):
    steps = 20
    w = lcd.width()
    h = lcd.height()
    ws = w / steps
    hs = h / steps

    lcd.startWrite()

    for s in range(steps):
        x1 = int(ws * s)
        x2 = w - 1
        y1 = 0
        y2 = int(hs * s)
        lcd.drawLine(x1, y1, x2, y2, color)
        
    for s in range(steps):
        x1 = w - 1
        y1 = int(hs * s)
        x2 = w - 1 - int(ws * s)
        y2 = h - 1
        lcd.drawLine(x1, y1, x2, y2, color)
        
    for s in range(steps):
        x1 = w - 1 - int(ws * s)
        y1 = h - 1
        x2 = 0
        y2 = h - 1 - int(hs * s)
        lcd.drawLine(x1, y1, x2, y2, color)
        
    for s in range(steps):
        x1 = 0
        y1 = h - 1 - int(hs * s)
        x2 = int(ws * s)
        y2 = 0
        lcd.drawLine(x1, y1, x2, y2, color)

    lcd.endWrite()

lcd.fillScreen(lcd.BLACK)
lines_show(lcd.WHITE)
lines_show(lcd.RED)
lines_show(lcd.GREEN)
lines_show(lcd.YELLOW)
lines_show(lcd.BLUE)

If no SD is plugged in the drawing is correct:

If an SD card is inserted the output changes. The drawing appear with wrong colors and and some artifacts (horizontal lines):

BNO055 is 9-DOF absolute orientation sensor with all the required math inside it:

• Absolute Orientation (Euler Vector, 100Hz) Three axis orientation data based on a 360° sphere
• Absolute Orientation (Quaternion, 100Hz) Four point quaternion output for more accurate data manipulation
• Angular Velocity Vector (100Hz) Three axis of 'rotation speed' in rad/s
• Acceleration Vector (100Hz) Three axis of acceleration (gravity + linear motion) in m/s^2
• Magnetic Field Strength Vector (20Hz) Three axis of magnetic field sensing in micro Tesla (uT)
• Linear Acceleration Vector (100Hz) Three axis of linear acceleration data (acceleration minus gravity) in m/s^2
• Gravity Vector (100Hz) Three axis of gravitational acceleration (minus any movement) in m/s^2
• Temperature (1Hz) Ambient temperature in degrees celsius

I would love to have a core module with this sensor.

Hello @m5stack, I'm facing the same problem reported by @felmue with Core 2 and GoPlus2. Are you working on this bug?

@nzmillsto Esp32-S2 can do it but ESP32 can not

I would like to use the Thermal Unit in UIFlow (1.7.6) but in the unit selection dialog is always disabled. Take a look at the following picture.

I tried with a StickC, StickC Plus and a Core2 but UIFlow doesn't let me add the Thermal unit.

I have too experimented powering both Atom Lite and the Atom Matrix via the groove connector or via the headers pins and I noticed a weird thing. If the voltage is a little below 5V, for example 4.6 or 4.7 Volts it works fine. If the voltage is a little above 5V, for example 5.2V it power up but it never connect to internet.
