Adventures With The Raspberry Pi Pico - Part 4

Second Beta Release - I2C Support

I’ve released the second beta of Telemetrix for the Raspberry Pi Pico. This release incorporates support for monitoring and controlling i2c devices. The Pico supports two i2c ports, and Telemetrix supports both.

The Pico arrived safely from across the pond. Simon Walters not only took the time to package it up but also pre-wired headers to the board. Well-done Simon!

Some Thoughts On The Importance Of The Raspberry Pi 2040

Last week, as I was trying to solve the mysteries of Bluetooth programming (more on that in a future post), I received an email announcing the Raspberry Pi Pico’s arrival. Quickly glancing at the Pico’s description, my first thoughts were, “YAAA” (yet another Arduino alternative). I yawned and went back to the frustrations of Bluetooth (or maybe we should call it Root Canal) programming.

Telemetrix And Telemetrix-AIO

This week phase 5 of Telemetrix and the new Python asyncio client, Telemetrix-AIO, were both released. Phase 5 of Telemetrix retains the original Python API but makes some significant changes to both the client and the server’s internals.

Evaluating ArduinoJson

Why Am I Evaluating ArduinoJson?

Currently, all data transferred between the Arduino Server and Python Client is in binary, positionally dependent form. When receiving a serialized data packet, the receiver must associate the command or report descriptor with the number of bytes that comprise the packet.
