Thanks Kevin, very interesting. Your recent Pico 2 live streams got me interested in this. "Solder" comes from the French souder iirc and the L was added because it's rude in British English, as you said. American English doesn't have that word, so there's no concern. In Canada they pronounce the L.

Perfect video! Kudos! I'm following along, and I did the exact same thing, but it doesn't work. :/ the line: (stat, tag_type) = reader.request(reader.REQIDL) always result in stat == 2 and tag_type == 0. I've changed the wiring, the sensor, the breadboard, another Pico, but it's all the same. :( I'm using Micropython 1.23.0. Do you have any tips?

@kevinmcaleer286 күн бұрын
Great question, but there are a number of reasons why what seems look a good idea is actually a bad idea. Adding extra libraries that are not needed actually slows down Python as it is an interpreted language, it would have to search through even more libraries, rather than just what it needs. Also libraries change and get updated, by baking them in we create legacy code that’s it difficult to change without recompiling. It’s generally considered bad programming to add stuff you don’t need and won’t use as it can also create security issues

To put the memory into context: a 4096-word memory module for the Altair 8800 (8-bit architecture -> 4 Kb) would set you back $338 in 1975 (~ 2000$ today). So the Cray had ~2000x the memory of what you could consider a "home-computer", not that such a thing existed in 1976.

Great question - I use Ecamm live (its a Mac only app, monthly subscription) for livestreaming. Its live OBS but much easier to use and setup. The iPhone automatically appears as a camera option due to the Hand-off capabilities of macOS, making it easy to bring that camera source into the livestream.

I recently built a Pico into a UV water treatment system and it is working perfectly! Living in Devon, we have recently had problems with Cryptosporidiosis in our water supply. A water treatment system costs £300 or more but a 24 volt Klaran LED UVC light alone costs £100 from Digi-key. This needs a 3.3v signal to switch it on and gives a zero volt alert if there is a problem (e.g. if the LED overheats or if the water supply fails), hence the need for a microcontroller. I was able to put the whole system together for under £200 by combining the UV light and Pico with a standard one micron 10 inch filter, a normally closed 12 volt solenoid valve (and 5 volt relay), plus a flow meter and a tap to adjust the flow rates (2 - 3 litres/minute). The Pico controls the flushes before the system can guarantee potable water and shuts down the instant there is a problem (so there is no risk of contaminated water getting into my tanks).

Hi Geoffrey, Thanks for sharing this! Is your project published online? I would love to know how effective it was killing these pests. Did you test before and after the filtering/treatment stages? Hopefully your water/sewage company has managed to clear this up.

@@johnwilson3918 Hi John. No, I haven't published this anywhere. The Pico code was very simple, though now I am seeing how you could enhance it with say a Pico W and an online app. Apparently UV doesn't kill the pests, merely stop them multiplying by damaging their DNA. We have stayed healthy. I don't know any other test!. The water company say they have cleared their supply up.
