Software Development
The M5StickC supports various programming languages, including MicroPython, Arduino, and UIFlow. Here are some code examples to demonstrate its capabilities:
### Example 1: Wi-Fi Connectivity using MicroPython
In this example, we will connect the M5StickC to a Wi-Fi network and display the connection status on the LCD display.
```python
import machine
import network
import utime
# Initialize the LCD display
lcd = machine.LCD()
# Initialize the Wi-Fi interface
wlan = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF)
# Connect to a Wi-Fi network
wlan.connect('your_wifi_ssid', 'your_wifi_password')
while not wlan.isconnected():
utime.sleep(1)
# Display the connection status on the LCD
lcd.fill(0)
lcd.text('Wi-Fi Connected', 10, 10)
lcd.show()
```
### Example 2: Reading Analog Values using Arduino
In this example, we will read an analog value from the built-in light sensor and display it on the serial console.
```c
#include <M5StickC.h>
void setup() {
// Initialize the serial console
Serial.begin(115200);
// Initialize the light sensor
pinMode(LIGHT_PIN, INPUT);
}
void loop() {
// Read the analog value from the light sensor
int lightValue = analogRead(LIGHT_PIN);
// Display the value on the serial console
Serial.print("Light Value: ");
Serial.println(lightValue);
delay(100);
}
```
### Example 3: I2C Communication using UIFlow
In this example, we will use UIFlow to communicate with an external I2C device, such as a temperature sensor.
```uiblocks
import uiflow as ui
# Initialize the I2C interface
i2c = ui.i2c(I2C_PIN_SCL, I2C_PIN_SDA)
# Create an I2C device object
temp_sensor = ui.i2c_device(i2c, 0x48)
# Read the temperature value from the sensor
temp_value = temp_sensor.read_reg(0x00)
# Display the value on the LCD
ui.lcd.clear()
ui.lcd.print("Temperature: " + str(temp_value) + "C")
ui.lcd.show()
```
These examples demonstrate the capabilities of the M5StickC ESP32-PICO Mini IoT Development Kit in various contexts, including Wi-Fi connectivity, analog-to-digital conversion, and I2C communication. With its versatility and compact design, the M5StickC is an ideal platform for a wide range of IoT, robotics, and automation projects.
