If a picture says a thousand words, then our HD 1080p videos are jam packed with endless educational goodness. Explore electronics, learn how to use the "Internet of Things", checkout new products and stay on the cusp of the maker movement. We're here to help, so don't forget to comment on our videos and say hi in the forum.
In this video we will be taking a look at why getting multiple boards to communicate and work together is an essential maker skill, taking a look at some of the different ways that we can do this wired and wirelessly, and the pros and cons of Read More
In this video of the zero-to-maker workshop, we are taking a look at casting a moulding - a niche but extremely powerful tool for your maker toolbox. We will be looking at how to make your own silicon moulds as well as casting resin into the m Read More
This is it! The final video of the Pico Workshop and we are going to wrap things up by taking a look at what you can do now that we are finished. Read More
In this video of the Pico Workshop, we are taking a look at some helpful MicroPython Code that could be vital to your next project. We will take a look at functions to measure the passing of time, multiple ways of running parallel code and mor Read More
In this video of the Zero to Maker Workshop, we will go through the 3 steps of designing a PCB in KiCAD. First, we will lay out our board schematic, as well as create some custom component schematics, then we will assign footprints (also makin Read More
Now that we have a template that can serve a web page and handle requests that are returned, lets take a look at how to improve that web page. In this video, we will be adding some more simple elements, better handling the requests by breaking Read More
Now that we can connect the Pico to a wireless network, in this video we will learn how to host a web page. With this web page, we will be able to create interactive elements to control the Pico with and send sensor data from the Pico to the w Read More
In this video, we will start with the most important step of all this - connecting a Pico to a Wi-Fi network. In this beginning step, we will also explore another capability of the Pico - connecting to the internet. This isn't going to allow y Read More
In this chapter of the Pico Workshop, we are diving into the wireless capabilities of the Pico W and WH. With this chapter, we are no longer bound by having data stored locally and we can now send and receive data through networks. While there Read More
There are 2 ways to avoid making bad mechanical design choices. 1 you create a mathematical model and run computer simulations to determine what the most optimal choice is, or 2 you make a design choice, realise it's a bad choice, and learn no Read More
SSDs on the Raspberry Pi are not new. For many years now people have been enjoying NVME speeds on Raspberry Pis through the use of NVMe-to-USB adapters. The Pi 5 brought a long-awaited PCIE slot, opening up the possibilities of connecting M.2 Read More
In this video, we will explore different methods to assemble and package your project's electronics. We'll cover the super-fast prototyping breadboard, the permanent protoboard, and the professional, clean printed circuit board, walking throug Read More
In this video of the workshop we will be looking at output devices, anything that allows a microcontroller to interact with the environment around it e.g. motors, lights, and speakers. We will be taking a look at how microcontrollers interact Read More
In this video, we will be looking at input devices (or sensors) and how we can incorporate them into our microcontroller-based projects. We will be taking a look at the role of input devices, and how they work in general terms, and we will be Read More
In this video, we will be taking a look at microcontrollers, the brains of a maker project that controls and orchestrates it. Microcontrollers are the bridge between the components of our projects like motors, lights, and sensors, and the code Read More
In this video of the Zero to Maker series, we are diving into CNC machining, a manufacturing process that makes parts by cutting away material with a milling bit. This process fills a gap that 3D printers and laser cutters can't fill by allowi Read More
I2C or Inter-Integrated Circuit, is a really handy communication protocol that can be used to connect over 100 devices together with only 2 wires! In this video we will dive into that a little by taking a look at the uses of I2C, how to wire u Read More
SPI or Serial Peripheral Interface, is a blazingly fast communication protocol that we can use in high-speed applications such as cameras, displays, and mass storage device adapters. In this video, we will be taking a look at the pros and cons Read More
UART or Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter, is one of the most common communication protocols out there. It allows for 2 devices to be connected and also for them to both send and receive data at the same time. In this video, we will Read More
In this chapter, we dive into advanced IO by learning how to use UART, I2C, and SPI with the Pico. These are all communication protocols which are just methods or sets of rules that devices can use to communicate information between them. This Read More
