PCB Testing for Raspberry Pi Pico Project

How I do testing of a new PCB design.

Halloween and Bonfire Night Project with Raspberry Pi Pico

In this video, I build an animated Guy Fawkes mask and control it from the Raspberry PI Pico.

Review and Tutorial: PIMORONI Galactic Unicorn (Pico-W Board)

PIMORONI Galactic Unicorn is a great LED display board based on the Raspberry Pi Pico W. So can provide connected IoT displays. In this video I take a look at it features and explore the display and the synthesizer and 1W speaker on board. https://youtu.be/F9HNypiFc8w All of my examples are written in C++ and included … Continue reading Review and Tutorial: PIMORONI Galactic Unicorn (Pico-W Board) →

Adding HC-SR04 Range Sensors to DDD, with ROS

I add two HC-SR04 ultrasound range sensors to DDD, my DiY Dev Droid.

HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Range Sensor with Raspberry Pi Pico (C++ & PIO)

In this video I explore the HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Range Sensor. Connecting this to a Raspberry PI Pico. https://youtu.be/oz0pYO8sCds I look at two code strategies for working with the HC-SR04: using Interrupts to calculate the echo time and using PIO to do this. I got carried away a little with exploring these devices and decided to … Continue reading HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Range Sensor with Raspberry Pi Pico (C++ & PIO) →

DDD: Costs of building a Raspberry Pi Pico and RPI4 ROS2 Robot

This video takes a look back at what the costs have been to date to build DDD. Of course, DDD is not finished and I have lots of fun planned with it.

DDD: ROS2 Twist – Driving Raspberry PI & Pico Robot from Dual Shock 4

In this video, I take DDD, my DIY Dev Droid, out for a drive. For the first time I have had the Robot off of the bench. I use a Dual Shock 4 as a controller to drive the Robot around like a remove control car.
