Description
This book is a streamlined introduction to the complex world of DC motors in Entity Event-Driven Embedded Systems.
Using MicroPython's asyncio library and Microdot, makers, hobbyists, students and professionals can provide microservices and other data consumers / AI Agents in Event -Driven Architectures with important "real -time" information about the operating characteristics of DC motors controlledby Entity Event -Driven Embedded Systems using the Raspberry Pi Pico W or Pico 2W.
This practical and straightforward guide takes you from fading an LED with a potentiometer and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to full and half step sequencing of a stepper motor. It gets you started with using the Pico's GPIO pins and PWM by way of some of the most common but low- cost DC motors available today.
