Hello readers, I hope you all are enjoying our Raspberry Pi Pico programming series. In our previous tutorials, we learned how to access Raspberry Pi Pico’s GPIO pins for both input as well as output operations. For demonstration, we used LED as an output component and a push button as an input component.
Now let’s learn how to interface sensor modules with the Raspberry Pi Pico module. So, in this tutorial, we will learn how to interface the DHT11 sensor with the Raspberry Pi Pico module and fetch the observed data (from its surrounding) using the MicroPython programming language.
Before writing the code for interfacing and fetching the data from the respective sensor, let’s first have a look at the working operation, features and properties of the DHT sensor.

Hi Friends! Hope you’re well today. I welcome you on board. In this post, I’ll walk you through How Workflow Automation Can Benefit Small Businesses?
Reduce the possibility of human error, save time and improve efficiency – The main goal of workflow automation. If your employees spend a lot of time on mundane and repetitive tasks, it’s a high time to invest in workflow automation. Especially if your business is small and you are in the early stages to leave a footprint in the competitive market. You can’t afford to hire scores of employees to do predictable tasks that you can automate with workflow automation. For instance, follow-up emails and sales calls, finance approval and invoice generation, and onboarding new employees, you can automate these tasks without having to worry about hir ...
Welcome to the next tutorial of our Raspberry Pi programming course. Our previous tutorial taught us to how to tweet from Raspberry pi. We also discussed some methods used by the tweepy library to perform some API calls in our project. We will learn how to print from a Raspberry pi in this lesson.
Let us get started
There are several benefits of having a print server. Print servers may link numerous computers to one or multiple printers, either physically or wirelessly, allowing you to access the printer with various devices and send print instructions from all the other connected computers.
It is not easy to print from an Android smartphone to a cabled printer; however, a printer server makes it simple. A print server is useful in small workpl ...
Greetings! This is the complete project of our Raspberry Pi 4 tutorials. In our previous tutorial, we learned to set up our raspberry pi as a virtual private network server. In this tutorial, we will design a smart attendance system using an RFID card reader, which we will use to sign in students in attendance in a class.
First, we will design a database for our website, then we will design the RFID circuit for scanning the student cards and displaying present students on the webpage, and finally, we will design the website that we will use to display the attendees of a class.

Hi Friends! Hope you’re well today. In this post, I’ll walk you through What is Edge Computing?
Edge computing is the extension of cloud computing. Cloud computing is used for data storage, data management, and data processing. While Edge Computing does serve the same purpose with one difference: edge processing is carried out near the edge of the network which means data is processed near the location where it’s produced instead of relying on the remote location of the cloud server.
Confused?
Don’t be.
We’ll touch on this further in this article.
Curious to know more about what is edge computing, the difference between edge computing and cloud computing, benefits, and applications?

Hello readers, I hope your all are doing great. We know that a Raspberry Pi Pico module comes with multiple inbuilt features for example onboard memory, processing units, GPIOs or General Purpose Input Outputs (used to control and receive inputs from various electronic peripherals) etc.
In our previous tutorials, we discussed how to access GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi Pico module for both input as well as output operations.
In this tutorial, we are going to discuss another important feature of the Raspberry Pi Pico module (RP2040) which is Dual Core Processor. The Pico board features with 133MHz ARM Cortex-M0+, Dual Core Processor. This dual-core feature makes the Pico module capable of multiple thread execution or multithreading.
Now before writing the MicroPython program let’s first un ...
Hi friends, today we are going to explore mathematical computations in ladder logic. Like in any programing language you should find logic and mathematic computations, here in PLC programming you often need to process the input data that is collected from reading analog devices like temperature, level, flow et cetera. Then you need to run some calculations on this data to derive some other variables for deciding to run or stop some device or even to determine analog output to output to analog device i.e. valve or actuators. In the following sections, we are going to explore the mathematical functions and their input operators and outputs as well. Then we will show how to utilize such functions in ladder logic with simple examples and as usual enjoy practicing them thanks to the PLC simula ...
Welcome to the next tutorial of our Raspberry Pi programming course. Our previous tutorial looked at how to Interface DS18B20 with Raspberry Pi 4. This tutorial will teach us how to create a time-lapse video with still images and understand how phototimer and FFmpeg work.
What is time-lapse?
When photographing something over a lengthy period, "time-lapse" comes to mind. A video can be created by mixing the still photos. Plant development may be tracked with time-lapse movies, as can the changing of the seasons. They can also be utilized as low-resolution security cameras.
Components
Raspberry pi 4B
Pi camera
Connect to the Raspberry Pi
Cameras that can be used with the Raspberry Pi are a bit limi ...
Hi there! Happy to see you around. Thank you for clicking this read. In this post today, I’ll cover how cloud computing can benefit small businesses.
Cloud computing is the new normal. Many small and medium-sized businesses use cloud computing to handle and store a large amount of data. But what does cloud computing mean? Even if they are using it, some people don’t understand this term. Don’t worry. I’m here to make it clear for you.
Cloud computing is the availability of computing resources over the internet; these resources include databases, servers, storage, processing power, and more. In simple words, it’s the process of storing, hosting, managing, and processing data on third-party hardware over the internet. The common third-party service providers include AWS (Amazon Web Service) ...
This is the third tutorial in our Raspberry Pi programming course. In the previous chapter, we learned how to install Raspbian on our Raspberry Pi mini-computer. In this chapter, we'll learn how to use a VNC server to remotely control and see its desktop from our computer.
What is VNC?
Computing over a network is known as "virtual network computing," or "VNC." To remotely control another computer, you can use this screen-sharing technology, which works on all major operating systems. As a result, a remote user can interact with a computer's display (screen, keyboard, and mouse) as if they were sitting right in front of it.
VNC takes advantage of the client/server concept. Rather than installing a VNC s ...
