Pi Pico Matrix Touch Keypad
This project is about making Matrix Touch Keyboard with 12 keys that is programmable
This project uses 3.5 inch touchscreen display module, Pico board and few jumper wires
From these materials you can make this amazing keyboard
This useful project was made by Dustin Watts and tutorial to make this is show in this video
Build a Pico Piano
From the name itself you might have got the idea about this project
This project is about making a small piano that actually sounds like real piano
You can also change the tone by adding some codes
Materials are Raspberry Pi Pico, few resistors, Copper Plated PCB and speaker
Gurgle Apps have this awesome video on How To Build a Pico Piano Using micro Python & circuit Python With Midi
Multipurpose digital clock using Raspberry Pi Pico
Small digital clock that can display bitmap animations and time in the format as you like
To make this you need Raspberry Pi Pico board, small lithium polymer battery and a custom RTC-OLED shield
By the addition of small band you can make this as wearable device
Thanks to Electro point who made this awesome Video on digital clock using Pico
Make Raspberry Pi Pico Wi-Fi Security Camera
Security cameras comes with hefty price tag but why to buy when you can make one!
This camera is made using raspberry pi and Pi Camera, Best part being this is accessible over The Internet
You can sit and watch things happening anywhere in the world
All you need is connection to internet using motion eye application
Thanks to Arducam for having this awesome tutorial video
Make Pico Snake Game
Who remembers that good old snake game, well from this project you can go back to time!
This interesting project uses small Pico board which is attach to breadboard to play legend snake game
This was made using 128 by 64 o led display module and 5 buttons
You have start button with 4 other buttons to control movements
Game code was written in micro python by Hari Wiguna and he has interesting video on this project
Raspberry Pi Pico VGA video output
This project is about making VGA output circuit using only resistors.
Like always you need pi Pico, VGA connector, breadboard and resistors
You can enjoy the video using this simple project
Credit goes to Robin grosset who has excellent explanation on how he made this project in this video
Raspberry Pi Pico Person Detection System
How cool is it when a machine made by you is able to spot an individual
This project uses raspberry Pico and an cam Mini to do real-time person detection
With some extra modification this can be add to robot car which serves various purpose
Best and useful project would be attaching this on house doors
More about this project on this video thanks again for Arducam who shares such innovative ideas
Line following robot using Raspberry Pi Pico
You might have heard or made line following robots since this topic is popular among small science projects
This robot or car follows the line as a guide
Most widely this can be found on moving goods robot
Here this project was made using Pico, few motors, IR sensor and breadboard
If you are making this go check out this video made by Hash Robotics
Raspberry Pi Pico Controlled model railway
This project shows how a Pico can automate a point-to-point model railroad layout
This is best idea for exhibition models
Works exactly in same way as actual locomotive system
So if you made up your mind to make this visit The Motor Channel or their video on this project
Obstacle avoiding robot using Raspberry Pi Pico
I already made complete tutorial of the same using other board but this was quite easy with Pico
To make Obstacle avoiding robot from pi you need Pico, l298n motor driver, ultrasonic sensor and servos
With this project you will have small robot that changes direction
Path will be change when it detects objects
Hash Robotics have this short and simple video on how to make Raspberry Pi Pico Obstacle avoiding car
