Zero To Maker Workshop | The Run Down On Microcontrollers
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
Zero To Maker Workshop | Intro To CNC Machining
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
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 4.4 | I2C
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
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 4.3 | SPI
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
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 4.2 | UART
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
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 4.1 | Introduction to Advanced IO
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
Zero To Maker Workshop | Laser Cutting For Makers
Laser cutters are simple, a powerful laser head is moved around by motors and rails (called a gantry) and is used to melt and blast away a very thin line of material from a large flat piece of material (and we can also turn it down a little to Read More
Zero To Maker Workshop | Practical 3D Printing For Makers
3D printing is an incredibly powerful tool for makers as it allows us to manufacture parts quickly and with ease. In this video, we will be taking you through the whole process of going from a CAD model to a final 3d printed part by looking at Read More
Zero To Maker Workshop | Save Your Projects With GitHub & Documentation
Earn some cred within the Maker community and keep track of your project progress. Documenting and backing up projects are essential when working on and completing your projects! Read More
Zero To Maker Workshop | CAD Modelling Crash Course
CAD (Computer Aided Design) is the bridge between an idea of a part in your head to having that part 3D printed or laser cut as a real-world part. There are many different types of 3D modelling and they all achieve different outcomes, but CAD Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 3.6 | Functions & Global Variables
In this video, we are going to learn all about functions in MicropPython. Functions are just a way of storing a piece of code away, giving it a name, and then running that code when we call its name. This is a great tool to use when we have se Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 3.5 | While Loops, Breaks, & Continues
While loops are the other type of loop we can use and they utilise the boolean logic statements we constructed before. Whilst for loops are designed to loop a set and a known amount of times, while loops will keep continuously looping a sectio Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 3.4 | For Loops & Lists
For loops are one of the two types of loops we can use in MicroPython, and are designed to be looped a set and known amount of times, executing the code placed inside of them on every loop. In this video we will be learning how to use the loop Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 3.3 | If, Else, & Elif
We now know how to use data and variables to make a statement so lets learn how to execute code based on the result of that statement. In this video, we will learn 3 tools, the if, else and elif keywords. These functions can be used to execute Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 3.2 | Boolean Logic & Comparative Operators
Making a decision with code can be boiled down into 2 steps: the first is to make a statement to compare data, and the second is to choose a course of action based on that comparison. This video will cover the first step of that process and we Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 3.1 | Introduction to Logic & Decision Making
Welcome to chapter 3 of our Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop. In this video, we take a quick look at whats coming up in this chapter (spoiler alert, we will be looking at logic and operators, IF ELSE, loops, and how to use functions). Read More
Zero To Maker Workshop | Getting Started With A Project
Getting started with a project is often a difficult thing, even for experienced makers. So in this video, we will be looking at 5 pieces of advice that seasoned makers wished they knew as a beginner. Read More
Zero To Maker Workshop | Our Fab Academy Experience
Welcome to the Zero to Maker Workshop. This series walks through and introduces a ton of tools and skills to help Makers of all skill levels! In this series, Jaryd and Liam will be completing projects as a part of the 2024 Fab Academy and will Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 2.10 | Sourcing Power from the Pico
We are finally at the last video of chapter 2, how to power components off of the Pico. In this video, we will cover the 3 main sources of power from the Pico, and go over some examples of how we would power an OLED display, some LEDs, and a s Read More
Raspberry Pi Pico Workshop: Chapter 2.9 | Running a Pico Without a Computer
For most projects, you will want the Pico to be able to run without the need to be plugged into a computer. In this video, we go over how to do exactly that by uploading code to the Pico (and using the magical main.py), and learning how to pow Read More
