Pico W Primer / WebMite / LoRa

[@ericcunningham1138]

Thank you!! That is a great explanation of connecting to WiFi. The recent versions of pico w also are connecting to Bluetooth too. I’m researching it, but the BLE protocols are very complicated and I don’t know how to access the Bluetooth module because there are no pins. It would be awesome to find a simple Bluetooth connection to the pico w similar to your external Bluetooth example. I’ll keep working on it. Thanks for your great work.

Excellent - that was really useful! I hadn't realised that you could run a serial terminal on your mobile, so that is certainly something I will be exploring. Thank TYou! 🙂

You are welcome!

Basic has to be the funnest language to program in. This is a pretty cool setup.

Wow, this is a cool idea! Never thought about that!

An excellent introduction to the Pico W. Thanks for this and all your very instructive videos. What terminal app do you use on your (Android?) phone? Thanks again.

[@0033mer]

You're welcome. The Android app is available from the Google Play Store called Serial WiFi Terminal.

I have 5-6 PicoMites (one is a WebMite). I also built the Australian PicoMiteVGA board kit. They are full computers. Start with a display panel and option system spi gp10,gp11,gp12 and option lcdpanel st7789_320 landscape, gp8,gp15,gp9,gp13 and option touch gp16,gp17 and option sdcard gp22. (The ST7789_320 is a 2.8" Hat display, so is easy somehow.) You can run into issues and can ask.

Thanks for the visit

[@jyvben1520]

nice, can it do hid aka act like a keyboard to e.g. control obs-studio thru the pico and a browser on a tablet.

[@PhG1961]

Cool video. Btw, is the controller able to switch between Wifi acces points depending on which access point is available or which one has the strongest signal?

[@shawnlowe1392]

I don't think so, but you might be able to program it to do this

Sorry, no BASIC. I stopped that nonsense in 1983 😂
