The Raspberry Pi Pico is a very powerful microcontroller, especially when compared to an Arduino Uno. Yet most of the time we reach for a board to test with, we pick an Uno! This is because the Uno is easier to prototype with.
Well, today we’ll change all that and build three different “Pico Uno” boards that have the power of the RP2040 and the ease of use of an Arduino Uno.
Stop hard-coding wifi credentials in your ESP32 and ESP8266 sketches – use WiFiManager instead!
This easy-to-use wifi provisioning library eliminates the need to hard-code wifi information, and makes your projects portable!
Learn how to use WiFiManager and how to easily adapt your existing sketches to eliminate hard-coding forever!
The 555 is one of the most popular integrated circuits ever created, with over a billion of them produced every year. In many cases, the 555 is a simpler and better choice than using a microcontroller.
Today we will learn how the 555 works, and then we will build five simple projects using a 555 timer.
Learn to use soil moisture sensors, both resistive and capacitive.
After calibrating our sensors, we will use them to build two projects. One of them is a soil moisture meter, the other is an automated watering system that uses the Arduino IoT Cloud.
Celebrate 10 years of the Raspberry Pi by building 10 unique Pi projects. Every model, from the Zero to the Raspberry Pi 4 and the Raspberry Pi Pico are included.
We’ll also cover the history of this amazing little microcomputer.
So come and join the party!
Balena Sound lets you use a Raspberry Pi to turn your old stereo system or amplified speakers into a wireless sound device.
It works with Bluetooth, Apple Airplay, and Spotify Connect.
You can even use Balena Sound to build a whole-house audio system!
If you have ever needed to connect to a USB device that was in another room, then VirtualHere is the project for you!
Using a Raspberry Pi and your existing wireless or wired network, you can remotely connect USB devices to any Windows, macOS, or Linux workstation.
Learn to use the Arduino IDE with the Raspberry Pi Pico and build an emulation of the classic Simon memory game.
It’s a fun and addictive project that you’re sure to enjoy building.
Compose your own music by writing code with Sonic Pi, a Raspberry Pi project that lets you create your own unique musical compositions.
I’ll show you how to install Sonic Pi on a Raspberry Pi 4.
Learn to use a Raspberry Pi to create amazing time-lapse movies.
We will use libcamera and FFmpeg to take timed pictures and stitch them together to create an MP4 video.
