Call for Bright Ideas
We are calling for bright event ideas regarding handicrafts & hobbyist electric projects such as tiny robots, micro web servers, smart LED clocks, etc.
To encourage our talent geeks, we are giving out %(red)[FIVE (5) free Raspberry Pi Pico RP2040 core board] with USB Type-C connectivity for interested geek members.
Miscellaneous
Two breadboards and some wirings are also available.
Vision
With such basic devices, you can already start your embedded development and learning on MicroPython. To start, read the introductory tutorials for Pico µCs and MicroPython.
Hero Geeks
We have the following hero geeks who are enthusiastic to this initiative.
