The Raspberry Pi Programming for Digital Making Projects course introduces participants to the fundamentals of Raspberry Pi Zero and MicroPython programming. Through hands-on activities like sensor integration, dashboard design, and data visualization, students gain practical IoT skills. 

The UMPSA STEM Lab's Raspberry Pi Programming for Digital Making Projects course focuses on engaging hands-on activities using the versatile Raspberry Pi platform. This program is designed to foster digital making skills and cultivate innovation among school children.

Participants will explore the foundations of Raspberry Pi Zero, learning its capabilities and setting the stage for IoT applications. The course emphasizes programming in MicroPython, a lightweight and powerful language tailored for microcontroller environments, enabling participants to seamlessly interact with hardware components.

Key activities include - 

  • LED Blinking - An introduction to GPIO control.
  • Sensor Integration - Working with sensors like the BME280 for environmental data monitoring.
  • Dashboard Design - Creating interactive dashboards using Python programming libraries such as Matplotlib and Plotly to visualize IoT data effectively.
  • Data Processing - Utilizing Python to analyze and display real-time data from connected devices.

Guided by undergraduate mentors at UMPSA STEM Lab, participants will engage in designing and implementing innovative IoT projects, ranging from basic systems to complex applications. This program is aimed at not only to provide foundational skills but also inspires participants to explore the exciting applications of IoT.
