Elron, a Russian developer of electronic devices, has introduced BearLogica, the first graphical programming language in the country designed to work with the MIK32 "Amur" microcontroller from Micron. The new tool allows you to create code using visual blocks, simplifying the learning of programming basics for schoolchildren and students.
BearLogica supports ELBEAR ACE-NANO and ELBEAR ACE-UNO (16/32 MB) boards based on MIK32 – the first domestic 32-bit microcontroller with RISC-V architecture. A feature of the language is the ability to export code to Arduino IDE, which facilitates the transition from visual programming to text-based programming.
When working with BearLogica, code is generated that can be transferred to the Arduino IDE environment, which makes it easier to transition from working in graphical programming environments to the Arduino IDE text environment. BearLogica is the first graphical language that supports MIK32 Amur, and we intend to continuously develop this project, which over time will help replace the programmable Lego constructor in order to train real Russian engineers almost from infancy.
Micron has already conducted master classes on MIK32 programming, and with the advent of BearLogica, the learning process will become even more accessible.
Thanks to Elron's initiative, the new programming language will open up additional opportunities for more effective training and involvement of young programmers in the world of technology. It is possible that in the future, a programmable children's constructor will operate on the basis of MIK32 Amur.
MIK32 "Amur" is actively used in industrial automation, IoT and educational projects. Elron continues to expand its functionality, adding new sensors and modules for ELBEAR boards.
