Board to Board Communication | Zero To Maker Workshop

Great information and production quality. I’m excited to watch more videos from the channel!

Thanks!

I’ll be using some of these tricks. Like pop up and flip in effects 😮

Nice, I just started implementing RPi - Arduino - ESP8277 communication with RS-486. I connected each controller's Rx/Tx to it's own UART-RS485 converter module and then those modules between each other into a giant bus. UART is god-sent. Worth exploring for distributed microcontroller applications. Got an idea after I saw controller design of our heat pump system.

Great video. Anyone managed to get the UART communication to work in reverse, I.e by sending from pico to RPi? I'm using a RPi4B and I'm not receiving messages properly when sending from pico. Sending from RPi4B works great just can't seem to get messages from Pico. Thanks

What could you use if you want to have like multiple boards communicating to one board? Like a hub etc

[@Core-Electronics]

Lots of boards all talking to each other is where it starts to get difficult! If you have wireless capabilities, MQTT may be the easiest. I2C is another possibility but would require making some hardware for it.

[@TheGMUniverse]

@@Core-Electronics sounds interesting though! The i2c sounds indeed hard, but the most interesting 😄

Personally not a fan of "edutaiment" with the excessive audio fx. Combining the two is a difficult line to balance. Unless you have the production of Mythbusters, I'd tune the entertainment value down when you're trying to showcase an actual workshop.
