Hi from Ohio!
Science Live is so interesting
Hello from Texas! Thanks for another great episode! Fun as always… See you next week!!!
Watching from Connecticut!
Love watching these! I wish I could see it in person.
That was a great science live it’s amazing how they controlled robot arm with just a very small chip.
Hydrogen car is very cool.
I loved the part where the robot messes around with the towers
Flex board is what you should name it.
why does the plant close up when its touched?
Acellus is awesome!
This episode was GREAT!!
Yesss I love accellussss!!!
we should do a ginormous shindig
Hello from Iowa!
I found the plant that closes when you touch it really cool. And how it could remember light and darkness.
Watching from Georgia!
I really enjoyed this video I canāt wait to see next weeks video
Iām in the home stretch of finishing my classes!!!!
I like the plants. Good job boosting the learning level.
Microcontrollers are really interesting creation I wonder what the limitations of them are?
Hi R-51!
yessss let’s do it
could you talk about Nikola Tesla and his free energy discovery sometime?
I’m so excited for the Calculus course! I love Acellus Academy! Even if I can’t watch these awesome videos live, I always look forward to watching them every week! I really wish I could go to Acellus World š But I look forward to watching it live! Those plants that close up to touch are all over where I live. We call them Sleepy Leaves š It’s really cool how we are discovering more and more new things about plants and animals like their intelligence and capability! Please Please Pleaseeeee put the Arduino in the storeee! I love the name R-board š This was such an awesome episode ]]]’][
this video was so funny but also very interesting at the same time, learned so much
Can you put a programable car in the gold store?
It is just so incredibly cool how artistic you guys are with the legos how fun!
i love r-51
The educator was so funny i was laughing so hard when he was destroying the towers.
I like the plant that moves I think you called them touch me nots my mom always buys me a plant in the summer we call Venus fly traps they move too they close when a bug goes on them
Congratulations Claudia! That experiment was really fun to watch.
R 51 is smart.
This video came out on my birthday! I love science videos.
I always enjoy watching science live and learning all the new interesting things.
Another great science live! Hi from Texas š¤
Today I have learned that a 555 is a micro integrated circut and that you can do unlimited thatngs with a microcontroller.
What caused you to make the r 51 segment originally?
I really liked the stuff about the plants is really interesting.
I thought the little robots were cool
This is my favorite part of the week!
I love history and inventing new things!
We watched this one with my little brother and sister today.
Omg yes!!!!!
Dr, John we will miss you!
I love history and learning new things!
I PRAISE GOD THAT I FOUND ACELLUS
Watching from New York
hello from Texas
The best person is R51.
The touch me not plants were cool, and I used to have them all over my backyard.
Watching Science Live on Spring Break!
Watching the replay, thank you !!!
Yay I love Science Live!
Science Live is always interesting. Learning about new classes being offered is exciting.
I really enjoyed watching this science live! Thank you!! (:
I love all the different scientific inventions I learn about in Science Live!
Inventing is fascinating Ā”
This science live was so fun. I loved learning more about the microcontroller chip, itās such an interesting subject.
That is one interesting plant! It kind of reminds me of the Venus fly trap.
I really enjoyed this science live because I always learn something new about technology.
I liked the plant that when touched it closes. The hydrogen car turned on made a loud boom . A metal claw was used to test strength.
Thank you for doing Science Live. I am excited to see the hydrogen car. I think it would be amazing if you did a big celebration at Acellus World.
The Lego part was so funny and cool!!
I have a new name for the Arduino: “The Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Arduino Board”!!!
I take acting classes and really love being on camera. It’s scary, but exciting. Thank you for doing Science Live. I think you should do a big celebration!!
Yay, I love Acellus!!
I like knowing my online school, actually has in person meetings and classes.
Watching from New Jersey! Thank you science live, I definitely vote YES for the arduino to be put in the Acellus store, but it should be renamed to āThe Billing Boardā or ā r 51 circuitā
That sounds like so much fun!! How much will it cost to get one?
Hi from OHIO and I CAN’T wait for for the Acellus World.
Acellus is AMAZING!!!!!
I love Acellus!
The plants are really interesting. If you ever want to invent something new, just look at nature. Its really cool that a lot of our inventions are based off of nature.
More names for the Arduino: The Arduino PROTOTYPE Board, The Arduino Billings-51Pajet Board, The Blue Arduino Board, The Ultimate Arduino Board, & MY FAVORITE, MOST FUNNIEST, is The Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Arduino Board (The SCED Arduino Board)!
What are microcontrollers and what are their functions for a election device?
I’m interested in robotics it was cool to see the robotic arm. I might want to work with robots someday.
Science live was super fun!!
Always so much knowledge and wisdom shared in these science LIVES! Great episode, I hope everyone stayed safe in the harsh weather.
When is Acellus wold
Hi, from Atlanta Georgia.
Acellus is so cool š.
This was a great episode! I really enjoyed learning about microcontrollers and how they can be used to create different projects. The examples made everything easy to understand, and it was fun to watch. Iām excited for the next Science Live!
The plant is called shameplant or mimosa pudica, I used to love them when I was little. They remind me of my childhood and my homecountry.
Hello from Maryland!
This episode if so good!
Hi from Japan!!
CALL IT THE ODYSSY BOARD!!!!!!!!!!!
Science sounds so interesting I wish I could come there in person but I live in South Africa so I canāt
I love these science lives way to much haha!
Science Live is always so interesting. I love hearing about all the intresting stuff that has been invented.

Happy 60’th birthday to the Hydrogen Car!
Great episode! I love Science Live and all of the cool things that are shared.
I love how many different scientific inventions Iāve learned about from Science Live!
Hello from Romania, Europe!
Hydrogen cars are probably going to be the future of vehicles.
What an amazing show tonight! Happy 60th anniversary on the hydrogen car! I think the board should be named something that only people on Acellus know about, that was it’s a trademark about people like us! The Billing’s Board is an amazing name too!
hello from GA!!
Name for the Arduino.
1. R-51 Arduino
2. R Arduino
3. Hydrogen Arduino
4. Dr. R Arduino
Acellus is the best!!
YAY! new episode, new facts
The circuits you guys talked about was interesting, I cant wait to see the first hydrogen car!
i love acellus
Yet another wonderful science live! Thank you so much,I hope everyone is doing well.
Arduino is so cool, I also have a kit. and fantastic science live.
I canāt wait to see the hydrogen car!
Also, warm welcomes to Dr. Patrick Mara.
I really liked the lego section of this science live!
The way they could control the robotic arm with short or long waves is so cool!
I think you should definitely put the Arduino in the Acellus Shop.
Thank you for sharing Science Live!
I like Science Live.
I enjoyed science live. Hope to see again next week!!!
Hopefully hydrogen vehicles become more efficient and available for more public use in the future.
This was so fun!
I love this science live!!!š
The Science Live as always great!
The science live is great.
Have scientists used pulling cells in the touch me not plant to help the human body or other creative designs?
Hi from Brazil !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What do they use the touch me not plant for? Does it produce fruit or seeds?
Science live is more informative then some actual classes.
This is really inspiring! It shows how technology and education can come together to motivate students and shape a better future.
I would love to see Acellus headquarters !
love todayās science liveā¤ļø
I hope to be able to take the Math course with the new teacher.
Dear Dr Billings, thank you for this week’s Science Live. It was fascinating learning about the how we can join Acellus World online.
I always enjoy hearing about technology. Iām glad the inventor of Arduino made it open source so that everyone could benefit from it.
I love Science!
Hello from South Africa!!!
I love this science live!!!
Hello from Louisiana
Hello from Louisiana
yes please am Tul form Thailand and yes please add the Adruino to the gold store
Mr.Roger Biliings is the best.
Controllers are cool I use one for my games! Is it like that?
I really learn a lot in science live
The Touch-Me-Not plant is really cool!
Hello from Tx!
I enjoyed the Science Live!
The Arduino is really cool!
How can a microcontroller-based system be designed to automatically monitor environmental conditions (such as temperature, humidity, and light) and make intelligent decisions to optimize energy usage in a smart home?
Love watching science live
Science live is fun š
hiiiii from Mississippi!!!!
I have these plants at my house.They are so much fun to touch.
happy aniversary
Inventioneering with Microcontroller combines creativity and engineering to turn ideas into real working projects.
Always love tuning into science live!
I wonder what is Dr. Billings best invention?
Goated science
hello from Georgia
Love from South Africa
Yayyyy science live!!!!
I think putting the Arduino in the Acellus store is a great idea!!
here from Bulgaria
How can the plant know anything if it has no brain?
I enjoyed watching the inventioneers make those towers and the proteges make the robotic arm to knock them all down and the sound effects made it even funnier.
Dr Dr Billings, I enjoyed today’s Science Live. R51’s light bulb was amazing!
Actually, I have an Arduino. You guys inspired me to get one last episode, and itās really fun. Thanks, guys.
I enjoyed the science live from Washignton.
ProtƩgƩs rules!
The touch me not plants are so cute and small. Itās really interesting that when they feel threatened the leaves close.
Hi, from Nevada! Thanks for another great Science Live.
It would be a great idea to create Acellus’ own microcontroller board in the gold store! As for the name, I’m thinking something cool like Synapse, or maybe something derived from the brain, like Neuronix or Cortexa. Overall this was another interesting episode. It’s great to learn something new every week; I didn’t know the arduino was actually named after a bar! I hope we can have more episodes like this.
Plants are surprisingly smart. I did not expect that at all!
