This project shows how to send instant WhatsApp alerts from a Raspberry Pi Pico W using WiFi and CircuitDigest Cloud WhatsApp API. The Pico W reads data from a rain sensor and, when moisture is detected, sends a notification directly to your WhatsApp. No GSM module, SIM card, or cellular hardware is required and everything works over a secure HTTPS request. The same WhatsApp notification…
Text-to-Speech, or TTS, is a technology that converts written text into spoken audio. It is widely used in voice assistants, accessibility tools, alert systems, kiosks, and smart devices. On computers and smartphones, TTS works smoothly because these systems have enough processing power and memory to handle speech generation locally. Microcontrollers are different.…
In this guide, we will create a simple and precise digital clock using the Raspberry Pi Pico RTC DS3231 Module through the Arduino IDE. We will use a 16x2 I²C LCD screen to display the information. Since the screen is small, we will write smart code that changes what is shown on the screen. For a few seconds, it will display the time and date, and then switch to show the temperature.…
