Engage with Bionic Blossoms:

Welcome to the vibrant world of Bionic Blossoms, where the future of gardening blooms right at your fingertips. Imagine wielding the power to choreograph a dance of colors and movements among your bionic flowers, all through a deck of cards. This tutorial invites you on an interactive journey, where you’ll become fluent in the language of bionic blooms.

How It All Comes Together: A Symphony of Cards and Blooms

Bionic Blossoms thrives on simplicity and power, harmonized through a card scanning system that feels like magic. Here’s how you step into the role of a botanical maestro:

  1. Arrange Your Symphony: Think of each card as a note in your floral symphony. Arrange them in a sequence that sings to you, whether it’s a cascade of colors or a ballet of opening and closing blossoms.
  2. Conduct with Your Camera: Your device’s camera is your conductor’s baton. With a simple scan, it listens to the notes you’ve arranged and prepares the orchestra—your bionic flowers—for their performance.
  3. Watch the Magic Unfold: As the sequence translates into the secret language of machines, our robotic gardeners take the stage. If every note is in harmony (your sequence is correct), your command orchestrates a living masterpiece.

This section is more than just instructions; it’s an invitation to play, experiment, and connect with your garden in a way that’s both intuitive and deeply satisfying. Let’s begin this interactive adventure together, transforming your touch into a display of bionic beauty that has to be seen to be believed. Welcome to the heart of Bionic Blossoms, where your creativity brings the garden to life!

Understanding the Card System

Our application utilizes a unique card-based system to control bionic flowers, divided into three main types of cards:

Command Cards:

Record: Begins the sequence. Place this first to start reading the cards.

Stop: Ends the sequence and prepares it for execution, Place this before the execute card.

Execute: Executes the compiled instructions. This must be the last card in the sequence for actions to occur.

Parameters Cards:

Flower ID: Targets a specific flower.

Even/Odd Flowers: Targets all flowers with either even or odd IDs.

All Flowers: Targets every bionic flower.

Time + 3s/6s/9s: Adds a delay to subsequent actions.

Speed (Slow/Medium/Fast): Sets the action speed.

Dim Down/Up: Adjusts the brightness of the flowers.

Action Cards:

Color: Changes the flower’s color.

Open: Opens the targeted flowers.

Half-close: Partially opens the targeted flowers.

Close: Closes the targeted flowers.

Basic Principles:

  • Start with the Start Card: This card begins the sequence. Any card placed before it is ignored.
  • Order Matters: Place Action and Parameters cards after the Start card to define your commands.
  • Reset with Parameters Cards: Introducing a Parameters card resets all previously set parameters to default.
  • End with Stop and Execute: These cards are crucial for the execution of your commands. Omitting them means your instructions won’t be carried out.

Example Sequences:

  1. Simple Sequence: Start → Flower ID 1 → Open → Color Red → Stop → Execute.
    • Result: Flower 1 opens and changes to red.
  1. Complex Sequence: Start → Flower ID 1 → Open → Color Red → Flower ID 2 → Color Green → Speed Medium → Open → Color Blue → Stop → Execute.
    • Result: Flower 1 opens and turns red. Flower 2 turns green. Then, all flowers open and turn blue at a medium speed.

Remember, the default target for any command is all flowers unless specified otherwise with a Parameters card. This intuitive card system opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to customize your bionic garden in endless ways.
