Baker's Demo Project

Here is my example project. This should give you a good idea of the layout and format for your documentation.

Supplies

List the parts, materials, tools/equipment you need. Aim to make this list as complete as possible, remember your gold standard here is that anyone should be able to follow this Instructable and make a completely functional product.

Bill of Materials

Raspberry Pi Pico W

4x Momentary Push Buttons

500mm NeoPixel LED Strip

Hookup Wire

Tools & Equipment

Soldering Iron

3D Printer

Side cutters

Wire Strippers

Wiring Diagram

Here is an example wiring produced using the Cirkit Designer App. You can have a look at it in the app > HERE <

Follow THIS TUTORIAL to get started using Cirkit.

NOTE: The tutorial shows an Arduino Microcontroller. We're using RPi Pico, but all the things to click on are the same. Just a different board. 😉

Production Steps Here

Code

import utime

import dht

from machine import Pin, ADC

# Setup sensors

dht_sensor = dht.DHT11(Pin(28))

light_sensor = ADC(Pin(26))

while True:

# Read DHT11 (temp/humidity)

dht_sensor.measure()

temp = dht_sensor.temperature()

hum = dht_sensor.humidity()

# Read LDR (light level as a 16-bit value)

light_val = light_sensor.read_u16()

# Convert ADC to percentage (if desired)

light_pct = (light_val / 65535) * 100

print("Temp: {}°C, Humidity: {}%, Light: {:.1f}%".format(temp, hum, light_pct))

utime.sleep(2)
