Microcontrollers, like RP2040 at the heart of
Raspberry Pi Pico, are computers stripped back
to their bare essentials. You don’t use monitors or
keyboards, but program them to take their input
from, and send their output to the input/output pins.
Using these programmable connections, you can
light lights, make noises, send text to screens, and
much more. In Get Started with MicroPython on
Raspberry Pi Pico, you will learn how to use the
beginner-friendly language MicroPython to write
programs and connect up hardware to make your
Raspberry Pi Pico interact with the world around
it. Using these skills, you can create your own
electro‑mechanical projects, whether for fun or to
make your life easier.
The robotic future is here – you just have to build
it yourself. We’ll show you how.
