DESCRIPTION:Note: in-person on-site event only\n\nOverview of Workshop\n\nY
 ou may have heard of the Raspberry Pi\, the credit-card sized computer tha
 t runs Linux. But what about its new smaller cousin\, the Raspberry Pi Pic
 o? It is an embedded computer\, that you can program directly with Python 
 or C like an Arduino. The Raspberry Pi Pico packs a huge punch for its sma
 ll size\, can run on a battery\, and costs under $10\, and you actually ca
 n buy them despite the semiconductor chip shortage! It can take over many 
 tasks leaving your precious stock of Linux Pi&#39;s for things Linux is best a
 t.\n\nIn this workshop\, which is aimed at beginners to embedded computing
 \, you’ll learn everything needed to program the Pico using nothing more
  than your own laptop\, a USB cable and a web browser. You will also be ab
 le to acquire hands-on experience yourself on how to connect the Pico to b
 uttons\, buzzers and create a mini weather station with a display\, and di
 scover other ways you can adapt the Pico to anything you might think of!\n
 \nAs part of this course you’ll receive a Pico that is yours to keep alo
 ng with a number of sensors and parts. You will also learn a basic overvie
 w of all the different capabilities of the Pico so you have a starting poi
 nt for your ongoing and future embedded design/program exploration.\n\nA n
 etworking session shall follow the workshop with light drinks/snacks provi
 ded. Light refreshments are also provided during breaks.\n\nFee: $90\n\nDa
 te and Time: 9am\, 11th July 2023\n\nLocation: University of Adelaide\n\n(
 exact room/lab location to be confirmed)\n\nWorkshop Instructor:\n\nAndrew
  McDonnell\n\nInstructor Bio:\n\nAndrew is an experienced and entrepreneur
 ial software engineer &amp; cybersecurity professional. Having spent his teena
 ge years hacking on a Commodore 64 and forging his career developing high 
 performance signal processing code\, he later co-founded an AgTech mobile 
 app startup and now works in application security. He loves playing with t
 echnology and experimenting with embedded systems\n\nPerquisites\n\nA lapt

 up to date Firefox or Chrome.\n\nMore info:\n\nadriel@ieee.org\n\nadam.bur
