The Flowol 'Mimic Creator' gives pupils and students the opportunity to produce mimics which are more specific to their particular project or interest.
A mimic is created by overlaying bitmap images, one for the background and other smaller ones to be displayed or removed when the inputs and outputs are turned on or off.
The bitmaps can be sourced from digital camera images, scanned pictures or photographs, or drawn directly using a paint package.
The 'Creator' will position, label and define the function of these bitmaps so that Flowol can control them appropriately.
Two sets of bitmaps are included with the 'Creator'. As the user works through the tutorial they will produce mimics of an 'Automatic Door Light' and a 'Lift System' which they can then add to their mimic folder.
Create a mimic in 4 easy steps:- 1: Take a digital photograph, scanned picture or a computer-generated drawing
- 2: Use graphics software e.g., Paint Shop Pro, to add or select your chosen active features
- 3: Save both the main picture and the bitmaps of the active images in the Flowol Mimic folder
- 4: Use the 'Mimic Creator' to position and overlay these bitmaps and to define their function
