This tutorial will introduce you to coding MicroPython on a Raspberry Pi Pico. MicroPython is a version of Python that runs on a microcontroller, like the Raspberry Pi Pico. To get started, you need an editor that helps you to write code in Python and can connect to the Raspberry Pi Pico. Two options for … Continue reading Getting started with MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico
In this tutorial, we will build a laser distance Sensor with a Raspberry Pi Pico and CircuitPython, using a VL53L1X Time-of-Flight (TOF) sensor. In this tutorial you will learn to build a distance sensor. It takes the basic steps to connect electronic components and programming the Raspberry Pi Pico in Python. It uses an laser … Continue reading Tutorial: build a laser distance sensor with a Raspberry Pi Pico
In a previous tutorial “build a distance sensor with an alarm” we used an Arduino Nano (coded in a C-variant). Now, we will do the same with a Raspberry Pi Pico and CircuitPython, a version of Python which runs on microcontrollers. If you are more interested in programming the Pico with the Arduino IDE (in … Continue reading Tutorial: build a distance sensor with a Raspberry Pi Pico and CircuitPython
