The following photos show some CubeSats and a CanSat assembled on the OBSAT-EESC-USP-Zenith Probe for the 1st Brazilian Satellite Olympiad. The white CubeSat was developed based on the PION CubeSat Educational Kit and improved/modified by the DNASAT Team, from Pirassuninga-SP. What is amazing is the high-quality photos taken from about 20km altitude using an ESP32-CAM […]
Since the announcement of Raspberry Pi Pico, many great things have happened to BIPES Project (bipes.net.br), and many great projects have been created with the Raspberry Pi Pico! But a Wifi connection was a dream of every Pico enthusiast. The recent announcement of the 6-dollar Raspberry Pi Pico (https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/raspberry-pi-pico.html) is a dream come true, and, […]
Hello! Tomorrow, we will have the honor to present BIPES Project at the Blockly User Summit (link below). BIPES is a unique open-source platform, that allows users to quickly create embedded and IoT solutions using visual block-based programming.

Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, etc: we always need a quick and simple interface (GUI) to view data and send data to microcontroller boards. With a little help from Jorge Marques (https://github.com/gastmaier) now we can push strings to be sent to the Serial port. These strings can be prepared/customized on any HTML freeboard widget on […]
WizNet is offering a low-cost Raspberry Pi PICO with Ethernet: the W5100S-EVB-Pico at about 9 dollars worldwide. For example, it can be purchased at Digikey here. There are firmwares ready to download and use based on MicroPython and CircuitPython. If you want to quickly get started, just use this firmware I built: https://bipes.net.br/firmwares/firmware_rpi_pico_ethernet_13022022.uf2 Next, just […]
