Raspberry Pi Pico Simplified

The Raspberry Pico is a brand new microcontroller development board.
In some ways it is similar to the well known Arduino boards but has several advantages like a faster processor, larger memory and more IO ports.
The most significant advantages are however its very low price tag and it's ability to be programmed with MicroPython.

MicroPython is a derivative of the well Python programming language and is much easier to learn and understand as C++ which is the standard Arduino programming language.

The combination of the low price tag and easy programming language makes the Raspberry Pi Pico an ideal entry point for those who want to step into the world of programmable microcontrollers but are reluctant because of the steep learning curve and price tag.

And just like the ears, eyes, smell, taste and sense for humans are, are sensors for microcontrollers.
This book is a step by step guide through the world of sensors.
It shows in clear schematics and text how to connect them and how to program the Raspberry Pi Pico to get instant results.

Next to that this book presents many ideas that easily can be build or altered to your own liking for getting started with building your own projects.
