- Choose your activity. Use the simulator’s workbook selector. Each activity starts in the correct mode.
- Predict first. Say which reading, command or rule should cause a change.
- Test one thing. Watch the model, output labels and LCD; explain what happened.
No hardware, network passwords, camera or classroom software is needed for this browser rehearsal.
MATCH THE REFERENCE BUILD
The same component and pin names
For identification. Use the workbook’s checked diagrams for real assembly.

What is replicated? The activity sequence, original checkpoint pictures, component labels, command permissions and reference control rules. This companion simulates behaviour; it does not emulate ESP32 firmware or validate wiring. The original PDF preserves the full workbook content. The gesture buttons rehearse predictions; they do not run live camera recognition.
