MicroPython Forum (Archive)

Also check out Rienier from Vinduino. Old school, tried and tested gypsum sensors.

Everything is open source hardware and software. Not Micropython, but the sensors are simple enough.

I am running a free introductory course in Micropython in a few weeks time. I would really like to use the "M" MicroPython logo as the only branding on the slides but it seems nowhere to be found. Would George Robotics prefer me to use the current snake-on-a-chip logo in the GitHub repo? I seem to r...

I sent a Private Message a while ago to the Global Moderators making a proposal for new Forum Category, I include it below as it has a similar drive (I think) to your request @carver You may have seen me hanging around the forum for several months, its a great resource. I am a very, very late starte...

A basic question that may have more to do with programing on microcontollers than Micropython specifically. I am using a ESP8266 WEMOS D1 mini using vanilla micropython. I have written a program that uses an endless loop of connecting to wifi -> reading a sensor -> publishing the sensor data by mqtt...

very old thread. Sorry I am running MicroPython v1.9.3-8 on a WEMOS D1 Mini ESP8266. While the ESP8266 is connected, I am able to set the ESP RTC by using the npttime library. This is ok until I turn off the power, or drop into deepsleep. So I have a DS1307 shield which I have tried to use with the ...

I would like an idea of remaining juice left in a battery supplying my WEMOS D1 mini via a battery shield . A previous thread in this forum indicated that the ability to monitor the supply voltage, while available in the ESP, is not implemented in Micropython. Is this still the case? I read a lot of...

You can run the code for Pycom's WiPy on any ESP32 board with a Rev 0 chip. It will also run on Rev 1 chip boards with external psRAM like the Wemos Lolin32 Pro. The Pycom software assumes, that all Rev 1 boards have that additional RAM. I hacked a version which also runs on Boards with a ESP32 Rev...

Also at the same conference, Andy Gelme introduces a open hardware 'lollibot' programmed with micropython . More on the hardware for those who are interested. Does anyone have any idea how I can get hold of one of the kits (or just the PCB) for this lollibot? I have contacted the organisers but got ...

Hi Jayant, Its great you are encouraging your son in microcontrollers! Even better that you are considering Micropython. 1 &2) i agree with @deshipu, as a beginner you son may get more from Adafruit's range; Huzzah feather series for example. They have a great series of shields with good online tuto...

great thanks @JDRBoston, that worked! so, just to summarise for those visiting this thread later. I was using a Wemos D1 Mini uSD shield shown below and the SD driver from the micropython github repository . this allows >>> from machine import Pin, SPI >>> import os >>> import sdcard >>> sd = sdcard...
