A graphic illustrating a "Traffic Light Project." On the left, a digital rendering of a traffic light shows its green light illuminated. To the right, a white circuit board with three colored LEDs (red, yellow, green) connected to resistors and wires is plugged into a black micro:bit board, which sits on a light green breadboard. A USB cable connects the micro:bit to another component that is mostly obscured. The background is a blurred image of modern buildings with large windows, tinted in shades of blue and green, suggesting a city environment.
