Project:Laser Engraved Stamps

2025-10-26T18:29:59Z

Erik: /* Workflow during events */

{{ProjectInfoBox|project title=Laser Engraved Stamps|image=Laser engraved stamps.jpg|status=done|date=October 2021|initiator=[[Luzian]]|team=[[Martin]], [[Patrick]]|materials=[[Laser Stamp Rubber|laser stamp rubber]]
|software=[[GIMP]]}}

As a preparation for the Türöffnertag 2021, [[Luzian]] had the idea to let the kids create custom stamps with our [[Laser Cutter|laser cutter]].

==Material==
The stamps are made of special [https://smile.amazon.de/gp/product/B07RWKH4PB laser rubber].

The holders can either be made of wood or [[3D Printing|3D printed]]. The image shows a custom design created by [[Patrick]]. You can also use the [https://www.printables.com/model/1080975-3cm-x-3cm-stamp-base 3cm x 3cm Stamp Base] designed by Leo.

== Designing the Stamp ==
In order to enable the kids to design their own stamps, we have created a template where they can draw the design on:
[[File:LaserStampTemplate.png|none|thumb]]
This template can be printed and - after designing the stamp - scanned.

== Preparing the Image ==
After scanning the template with the stamp design, it needs to be prepared for the [[Laser Cutter|laser cutter]]. For this, 3 steps are needed:

# convert it into a 2-bit image (the laser can only produce "stamping" or "non-stamping" areas, no grey-scales are possible). You can use Colors->Threshold in [[Gimp]] (and the eraser and brush tools to clean up a bit).
# invert the colors (Gimp: Colors->Invert)
# horizontally mirror the image (Gimp: Tools->Transform Tools->Flip)
'''Note:''' sometimes [[LaserCut 5.3]] does not like the GIMP export and throws an error ("only 2 bit maps can be engraved"). In this case, open the png in Inkscape and export it as PNG again, this fixes the issue for some reason.

== Laser the Stamp and Test It ==
The last step follows the regular preparations for engraving pictures with the laser cutter. The needed settings can be found on the page "[[Laser Cutter Material Settings]]".

== Workflow during events ==
The workshop is best carried out in pairs. One person supervises the children as they draw the stamps on paper, then scans them, cuts out the stamps without the black border, converts them to black and white, '''mirrors the image''' and uploads the finished PNGs via Laserfiles. Scaling can be done in the Laser software as long as the aspect ratios are correct.
The second person stands at the laser cutter. It is advisable to load the images into the laser cutter software one after the other and cut them, aligning them directly on the laser, so that you can better estimate the space and save material. Too many stamps at once overwhelms the laser cutter software and causes it to crash.
At the beginning, the person at the laser cutter has little to do because the children have to draw first. However, then a lot of children finish at the same time. Towards the end, the curve flattens out again.
To prevent the children from blocking each other (the laser cutter takes time), each child should be allowed to submit a maximum of two stamp designs at the beginning. If there is still time and material (!) left at the end, extra requests can still be accommodated...

Pliers

2025-08-03T12:01:45Z

Erik: /* Combination Pliers */

Pliers are hand tools to strongly grip, squeeze or cut a workpiece with one hand.

For the wide-jawed tool used to extract nails, please visit [[Pincers|"pincers"]]. For the special adjustable pliers that stay shut with no need to hold them, see [[Grip Pliers|"grip pliers"]].

== Long Nose Pliers ==

|location=[[Location::Electronics Room|electronics room]]
|material=wires
|extrabox=yes
}}

Long nose pliers have narrow, tapered jaws that allow for gripping, bending, and positioning wires in tight or hard-to-reach spaces. They are commonly used in electrical work, jewelry making, and precision tasks requiring control and access in confined areas.

 

== Electronic Precision Cutters ==

Electronic precision cutters are designed for ultra-fine, flush cuts on soft wires and electronic components. Their sharp, ground cutting edges and smooth operation make them ideal for work on PCBs, delicate wires, and precision assemblies. Do not cut nails or other hard metals with them!

A very common type of pliers are combination pliers which can be used to cut, grip and squeeze. We have ''a few'' of this kind.

Combination pliers are, for example, well suited to tighten and trim [[Material:Zip Ties|zip ties]] if they are used in easily accessible places or to bend thin sheet metal.

The KNIPEX 26 16 200 Snipe Nose Side Cutting Pliers (Stork Beak Pliers) are ideal for precise gripping, bending, and cutting in tight or hard-to-reach spaces.

|material=[[metals]]; [[nails]], [[Material:Zip Ties|zip ties]], [[staples]], wires
|similar=[[tweezers]]
|extrabox=yes
}}

Needle-nose pliers are similar to combination pliers but are typically used for more delicate gripping and bending tasks. For example, they are quite useful for removing [[staples]] from ''soft'' [[wood]]. Where these pliers are still too big, you may want to use [[tweezers]].

They come in a bent and straight variety.

 

==Tongue-and-Groove Pliers==

|extrabox=yes
}}
Tongue-and-groove pliers can be useful to grip nuts and bolts or pretty much any other material as they are widely adjustable. However, an actual [[Wrenches|wrench]] is a better choice if the size you require is available.

They also yield pretty high gripping force due to their long handles which may be useful in some squeezing or crimping applications.

}}

Diagonal cutting pliers are used to snip wires, e.g. in electrical work. Although a cutter is included in [[Pliers#Combination Pliers|combination pliers]] and many [[Pliers#Needle-Nose Pliers|needle-nose pliers]] as well, these can be sharpened much more easily and enable the user to reach wires in tight corners as the cutting edge continues over the entire length of the tool head.

[[Flush Cutters|Flush cutters]] can reach even tighter spaces and are used for delicate [[electronics]] work.

Pliers

Erik:

Pliers are hand tools to strongly grip, squeeze or cut a workpiece with one hand.

For the wide-jawed tool used to extract nails, please visit [[Pincers|"pincers"]]. For the special adjustable pliers that stay shut with no need to hold them, see [[Grip Pliers|"grip pliers"]].

== Electronic Precision Cutters ==

Electronic precision cutters are designed for ultra-fine, flush cuts on soft wires and electronic components. Their sharp, ground cutting edges and smooth operation make them ideal for work on PCBs, delicate wires, and precision assemblies. Do not cut nails or other hard metals with them!

A very common type of pliers are combination pliers which can be used to cut, grip and squeeze. We have ''a few'' of this kind.

Combination pliers are, for example, well suited to tighten and trim [[Material:Zip Ties|zip ties]] if they are used in easily accessible places or to bend thin sheet metal.

The KNIPEX 26 16 200 Snipe Nose Side Cutting Pliers (Stork Beak Pliers) are ideal for precise gripping, bending, and cutting in tight or hard-to-reach spaces.

}}

Needle-nose pliers are similar to combination pliers but are typically used for more delicate gripping and bending tasks. For example, they are quite useful for removing [[staples]] from ''soft'' [[wood]]. Where these pliers are still too big, you may want to use [[tweezers]].

They come in a bent and straight variety.

Tongue-and-groove pliers can be useful to grip nuts and bolts or pretty much any other material as they are widely adjustable. However, an actual [[Wrenches|wrench]] is a better choice if the size you require is available.

They also yield pretty high gripping force due to their long handles which may be useful in some squeezing or crimping applications.

Diagonal cutting pliers are used to snip wires, e.g. in electrical work. Although a cutter is included in [[Pliers#Combination Pliers|combination pliers]] and many [[Pliers#Needle-Nose Pliers|needle-nose pliers]] as well, these can be sharpened much more easily and enable the user to reach wires in tight corners as the cutting edge continues over the entire length of the tool head.

[[Flush Cutters|Flush cutters]] can reach even tighter spaces and are used for delicate [[electronics]] work.

Woodturning Introduction

2025-05-30T18:24:02Z

Erik: also add Category:Woodturning since it is the introduction for it

This is the content required for an introduction to our [[Introduction for::Wood Lathes|wood lathes]] and [[Woodturning Tools|woodturning tools]] - '''reading this does NOT replace the mandatory session with a [[tutor]]!''' It will make it a lot quicker though ;-)

If you need this introduction, please reach out to the following tutors: [[Tutor::User:Lukas|Lukas]]

Let's begin! First off, make sure you have read the respective machine's manual ([http://download.maschinenhandel-gronau.de/MANUAL_D_460_460F_DE.pdf Holzmann D 460F]; Tyme Avon: not available) and have '''watched at least one of these videos''' explaining how catches ''("Nürnberger")'' happen:
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOvF5f1phhY (EN, more examples) - "Understanding Woodturning Catches"].
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86w4174CLeg ''(DE) - "Das Schlichten mit dem Meißel"'']

! Dangers !! Precautions
|-
| quickly spinning exposed chuck and workpiece
* workpiece might fly at you if it gets loose
* rough workpieces can exert strong lateral force and cause notable vibrations
* rotating workpiece can rip the tool out of your hand
||
* always make sure all screws and nuts (tool rest, tailstock, spindle) are properly tightened
* give the workpiece a test spin by hand to check whether it catches on anything '''before turning on the motor'''
* start at the slowest motor speed, increase when the workpiece is rounder [https://makezine.com/2011/02/11/skill-set-understanding-the-lathe/]
* use a tool rest for all cutting tools
** should be set very close (1-2 mm) to the workpiece, adjust it after removing material [https://www.selbst.de/holz-drechseln-5223.html]
** always let the tool touch the tool rest before the workpiece
** make sure the tool is supported on the side you're going to cut with
** treat the '''tool rest like a barrier:''' never reach across it with your fingers "or any other part of your anatomy you want to keep" [http://www.docgreenwoodturner.com/gouges5.html] while the lathe is running!
* proceed slowly and smoothly "into" the workpiece - you want to ''shave'' material off, not break it!
|-
| [[File:Danger_-_draw-in.svg|left|50px]] danger of entanglement ''(Einzugsgefahr)'' ||
* do NOT wear [[gloves]], loose jewellery or clothing or open long hair!
* remove the tool rest when working with soft "tools" (e.g. sandpaper or oil rags) to gain maximum clearance
** do NOT wrap these items around your finger as you might like to do when treating non-moving surfaces
|-
| tools, especially [[Skew Chisels|skew chisels]], can get caught on the workpiece's surface (leading to a ''catch'' or ''runback'') ||
* learn how to prevent mishaps '''==> see videos linked above!'''
* practice far in the middle of your workpiece and stay at least a tool's width away from the lathe's metal parts (centers, chuck) until you can control the tools without runback
|-
| [[Parting Tools|parting tools]] can get stuck in the cut due to the high friction || keep the tool straight and make '''cuts wider than the tool''' whenever you go deeper than a few mm
|-
| flying shavings, splinters and dust ||
* wear a [[Face Shield|face shield]] (ideally over [[goggles]])
* wear a [[Dust Mask|dust mask]] depending on your material & tool
|-
| Tyme Avon: belt-based speed selection || unplug the machine before opening the belt housing to select a different speed

== Suggested Reading ==
Besides these safety notes, you should read our page on [[Woodturning Tools|woodturning tools]].

'''You really should! Damaged tools are your responsibility to replace and can get quite expensive...'''

[[File:abused woodturning tools.JPG|thumb|left|abused & bent tools - not cool!]]

Besides the tools, you will often find yourself figuring out safe workholding options for different types of projects. [[Four-Jaw Chucks|four-jaw chucks]] are especially versatile!

 

== Demonstration ==
The tutor will show you these steps in detail:
* speed selection
** unplug the lathe
** open the belt housing on the left
** loosen the red handle holding the motor in place
** lift the motor up to get some slack in the belt
** switch the belt to the desired setup (same position on both pulleys!)
** let the motor go back into its original position and re-tighten the holding screws
** leave the belt a bit looser than you would on the [[Drill Press|drill press]] - that way, it can slip when an accident happens!
* setting up a workpiece between centers ("spindle work")
** find the center point and mark it on both sides
** remove the drive center from the headstock, set it on the center point you marked on your workpiece, and hammer it "in" with a wooden [[mallet]]
** in case of [[hardwood]], a few relief cuts across the center point may prevent splitting
*** this ''may'' also reduce the need for hammering the drive center into the workpiece
** screw the drive center back onto the headstock spindle and move the tailstock as close as the workpiece allows
** drive the tailstock spindle into the workpiece and secure it with the nuts on either side of the tailstock
* keeping the workbench tidy - if a woodturning tool falls down, it will almost certainly damage its edge...
** the wall holder is the best place for anything you don't need in the current step!
** do '''not''' put the currently used tools down parallel to the edge of the table, they will fall eventually...
* letting the bevel of a gouge "ride" on the workpiece before the cut
* cutting a shaving with the [[Skew Chisel|skew chisel]]: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8wA4mBX0MM let the bevel ride and keep the contact point with 1/3 of the blade below and 2/3 above] (should already work if the workpiece is rotated by hand, otherwise something is wrong!)
* cutting "downhill" when sculpting features on spindles

Erik: add myself to the waiting list

An overview of the waiting lists for our [[introductions]] that take more time than the [[tutors]] can usually invest spontaneously.

''If you want to "wait" for a vehicle spot, see [[Vehicle Workspaces|vehicle workspaces]].''

<big>'''How to Use'''</big> Please '''link''' your [[Special:MyPage|user page]] at the bottom of each list you're interested in after you've filled it with enough information to contact you and/or activated "Allow other users to email me" in your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]]!

DO: link yourself for the introductions you need for your project(s)

DO NOT: link yourself for all available introductions just because you might need it at some point in the future - chances are you'll forget something important by the time you actually use the machine!

If a list is full enough and/or you have been waiting for a while, please reach out to the tool's tutors and kindly ask for a date - maybe they've just been too busy, but it could also be that they missed the list filling up and would appreciate the reminder.

Waiting Lists

2025-05-23T16:07:28Z

Erik: add myself to the waiting list

An overview of the waiting lists for our [[introductions]] that take more time than the [[tutors]] can usually invest spontaneously.

''If you want to "wait" for a vehicle spot, see [[Vehicle Workspaces|vehicle workspaces]].''

<big>'''How to Use'''</big> Please '''link''' your [[Special:MyPage|user page]] at the bottom of each list you're interested in after you've filled it with enough information to contact you and/or activated "Allow other users to email me" in your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]]!

DO: link yourself for the introductions you need for your project(s)

DO NOT: link yourself for all available introductions just because you might need it at some point in the future - chances are you'll forget something important by the time you actually use the machine!

If a list is full enough and/or you have been waiting for a while, please reach out to the tool's tutors and kindly ask for a date - maybe they've just been too busy, but it could also be that they missed the list filling up and would appreciate the reminder.

Pflanziska Workshop

2025-05-03T20:52:31Z

Erik:

=== Material ===
[[File:Raspberry Pi Pico WH.jpg|none|thumb|300x300px|1x Raspberry Pi Pico W]]
[[File:Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor v1.2.jpg|none|thumb|1x Feuchtigkeits-Sensor]]
[[File:Speaker-module.jpg|none|thumb|1x Lautsprecher-Modul]]
[[File:Steckbrett-400-Kontakte.jpg|none|thumb|1x Steckbrett]]
[[File:Micro-usb-to-usb-a-cable.jpg|none|thumb|1x Micro-USB auf USB-A Kabel]]
[[File:Cables-male-male-female-male.jpg|none|thumb|1x zahlreiche Kabel]]

=== Ziel ===

* Ein Mikrokontroller, also ein winziger Computer (Raspberry Pi Pico W), liest einen Feuchtigkeits-Sensor aus.
* Der gelesene Wert wird von dem Mikrokontroller ausgewertet und die Feuchtigkeit in Prozent umgerechnet (100% = komplett nass, steht zum Beispiel in einem Glas Wasser; 0% ist völlig trocken, zum Beispiel, wenn man den Sensor in der Luft hält und er trocken ist)
* Wenn der Prozentwert unter einen gewissen Schwellenwert fällt, wird ein Signal an ein Lautsprecher Modul gesendet, dass dann eine vorher aufgenommen Tonspur wiedergibt.

=== Vorbereitung ===
[[File:Raspberry-pico-w-on-breadboard.jpg|thumb|300x300px|Der Mikrokontroller wurde mittig am oberen Rand platziert]]

==== Verkabelung ====
Bevor man irgendetwas mit dem Mikrokontroller macht, empfiehlt es sich, einen Blick in die Dokumentation zuwerfen. Diese findet sich hier: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/pico-series.html#picow-technical-specification

Besonders wichtig ist das sogenannte "Pinout", also die Nummerierung der verschiedenen Pins und ihre Funktionen. Zum Pinout des Raspberry Pico W geht es hier: https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/picow/PicoW-A4-Pinout.pdf

:: 1. Als erstes den Mikrokontroller mittig auf das Steckbrett stecken. Durch die vielen Pins des Mikrokontrollers kann das eventuell etwas Kraft benötigen. Tipp: Wer später leichter die verschiedenen Pins finden will, kann den Mikrokontroller so platzieren, dass die Nummerierung des Steckbretts zu der des Pinouts des Mikrokontrollers passt.
:: 2. Damit wir später unsere verschiedenen Komponenten mit Strom versorgen können und es dabei nicht unübersichtlich wird, verbinden wir zuerst Pin 36 ( <code>3V3(OUT)</code>) mit einer der Plus (<code>+</code>) Schienen sowie Pin 38 (<code>GND</code>) mit der Minus (<code>-</code>) Schiene des Steckbretts. [[File:Raspberry-Pico-W-on-breadboard-power-connected.jpg|none|thumb]]
:: 3. Als nächstes können wir den Feuchtigkeits-Sensor verbinden. Dafür müssen wir zuerst Kabel mit Steckern an beiden Enden in das Kabel des Feuchtigkeits-Sensors stecken, da wir die Kabel sonst nicht in das Steckbrett stecken können. Dann können wir das rote Kabel (<code>VCC</code>) des Feuchtigkeits-Sensors in die <code>+</code>-Schiene und das schwarze Kabel (<code>GND</code>) in die <code>-</code>-Schiene stecken, sodass der Sensor mit 3 Volt Spannung versorgt wird.
:: Nun können wir das gelbe Kabel (<code>AOUT</code>) mit dem Pin 31 (<code>GPIO26 ADC0</code>) des Mikrokontrollers verbinden. Die Pins 31, 32 und 34 sind besonders, da sie analoge Werte einlesen können. Diese können wir später in Prozent-Feuchtigkeit umrechnen.
[[File:Moisture-sensor-with-connected-cables.jpg|thumb|Die Kabel in den Stecker des zum Feuchtigkeits-Sensors gehörenden Kabels stecken. Welche Farben die Kabel haben, ist prinzipiell egal, jedoch muss man aufpassen, dass man die verschiedenen Kabel bzw. ihre Funktion am Ende dann nicht vertauscht.|left]]
[[File:Raspberry-pico-w-with-connected-moisture-sensor.jpg|thumb|Das gelbe Kabel ist mit dem Pin 31 verbunden, der ADC kann (ADC = Analog to Digital Converter)|445x445px]]

 
:: 4. Zuletzt schließen wir noch das Lautsprecher-Modul an. Auch hier schließen wir wieder <code>VCC</code> an die <code>+</code>-Schiene sowie <code>GND</code> an die <code>-</code>-Schiene des Steckbretts.
:: Außerdem schließen wir ein Kabel (im Bild weiß) an den <code>P-E</code> Pin des Lautsprecher-Moduls. Das andere Ende des Kabels stecken wir an den Pin 27 (<code>GPIO21</code>) des Mikrokontrollers.
[[File:Raspberry-pi-pico-with-connected-sound-module.jpg|none|thumb|Über das weiße Kabel können wir dem Lautsprecher-Modul ein Signal geben, die aufgenommene Tonspur abzuspielen.]]

==== Verbindung zum Mikrokontroller herstellen ====
Zur Programmierung nutzen wir [https://microblocks.fun/ MicroBlocks]. Die "Entwicklungsumgebung" kann in jedem chromium basiertem Browser geöffnet werden (also Google Chrome, Edge, ... aber nicht Safari oder Firefox).

Den Mikrokontroller mit dem USB Kabel mit dem Computer verbinden und einfach die Seite [https://microblocks.fun/run/microblocks.html hier] aufrufen. Anschließend auf <code>verbinden</code> klicken und dann die Option <code>verbinden (USB)</code> wählen.

Im sich öffnenden Dialog des Browsers den Eintrag wählen, welcher <code>Pico W</code> enthält (der genaue Name kann vom Bild abweichen) und <code>verbinden</code> drücken.
[[File:Microblocks-connect-button.png|left|thumb|400x400px]][[File:Microbits-connect-browser-dialog.png|thumb|400x400px]] Nun ist MicroBlocks mit dem Mikrokontroller verbunden und bereit, durch das Ziehen und Verbinden der verschiedenen Blöcke den Mikrokontroller zu programmieren.

=== Programmierung ===
Unser Programm muss insgesamt drei Dinge tun:

* einen Wert aus dem Feuchtigkeits-Sensor lesen
* daraus einen Prozentwert berechnen
* je nach dem, ob der Prozentwert unseren definierten Schwellenwert unterschreitet, das Signal an das Lautsprecher-Modul schicken, sodass die vorher aufgenommene Tonspur abgespielt wird.

Um den Feuchtigkeits-Sensor auslesen zu können, brauchen wir den Block <code>lies analogen Pin</code> aus dem Menü <code>Pins</code>:
[[File:Microblocks-get-adc-pin.png|none|thumb|400x400px]]
Diesen Block ziehen wir nun auf die große weiße Fläche, wo wir unsere Blöcke sammeln und geben in das Feld wo vorher eine <code>1</code> stand jetzt <code>26</code> ein. Die 26 steht für die Zahl hinter dem "GPIO", an der wir vorher das Kabel für die Sensor-Daten verbunden hatten, nämlich Pin 31 (<code>GPIO'''26''' ADC0</code>).

Wenn wir jetzt auf unseren Block klicken, wird dieser ausgeführt:
[[File:Microbits-analog-read.png|none|thumb|600x600px]]
Vorausgesetzt, der Sensor ist korrekt verbunden und noch trocken, sollte nun eine Zahl im hohen dreistelligen Bereich angezeigt werden. Den ausgegeben Wert merken wir uns oder schreiben ihn auf, denn diesen brauchen wir später zum Kalibieren und für die Umrechnung in Prozent.
[[File:Moisture-sensor-in-water.jpg|left|thumb|273x273px|Der Sensor muss nicht zwangsweise bis zur Markierung im Wasser stehen.]][[File:Moisture-sensor-max-depth-mark.jpg|thumb|300x300px|Oberhalb der Markierung beginnt die Elektronik, die '''nicht''' wasserfest ist.]]
Als nächstes stellen wir den Feuchtigkeits-Sensor maximal bis zur Markierung ins Wasser, um den Wert zu bekommen, welcher bei völliger Nässe vom Mikrokontroller gelesen wird:[[File:Microbits-analog-read-water-value.png|thumb|600x600px|Der Wert im Wasser sollte deutlich unter dem "trocken"-Wert liegen.|none]]

The printer "P6" has a multi-material upgrade ("MMU")! Of all the 3D printing tutors, [[Ciaran]] may have the most experience with this so far.

In the slicer, please select "Original Prusa i3 MK2 Multi Material" as the printer. 
Please ensure that the filament loaded into the printer matches the settings you have in the slicer, for example like this:
 
[[File:MultiMaterialSlicingExample.png|350px]]

For each part in your model, you can assign a specific extruder. If you import your parts in a single STL file, try marking it and pressing the "Split" button in order to split it into multiple parts (it will for example split it into the bodies from Fusion 360).
Prusa provides a few helpful links for Multi Material Printing: 
*[https://manual.prusa3d.com/Guide/Export+model+from+Fusion+360/378?lang=en Export model from Fusion 360] 
*[https://manual.prusa3d.com/Guide/Gcode+preparation+for+Multi+Material+v2.0/424?lang=en Gcode Preparation for Multi Material v 2.0]

*[https://manual.prusa3d.com/Guide/Splitting+STL+with+single+compact+part/380?lang=en Splitting STL with single compact part] 
Please read them while preparing for your first print. 
In case you have a specific support Material (e.g. Soluble support), please see the settings at: Print Settings --> Multiple Extruders.
Please note that Multi Material printing takes much longer than regular printing. After you exported the GCode, you can see the estimated printing time in the lower right corner.

A promising way to waste less time and material with multi-color prints could be [https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprinting/comments/7t5zx8/mosaic_introduces_infill_transitioning/ color transitioning inside the infill] instead of a waste tower.

=== Ziel ===

* Ein Mikrokontroller, also ein winziger Computer (Raspberry Pi Pico W), liest einen Feuchtigkeits-Sensor aus.
* Der gelesene Wert wird von dem Mikrokontroller ausgewertet und die Feuchtigkeit in Prozent umgerechnet (100% = komplett nass, steht zum Beispiel in einem Glas Wasser; 0% ist völlig trocken, zum Beispiel, wenn man den Sensor in der Luft hält und er trocken ist)
* Wenn der Prozentwert unter einen gewissen Schwellenwert fällt, wird ein Signal an ein Lautsprecher Modul gesendet, dass dann eine vorher aufgenommen Tonspur wiedergibt.

=== Vorbereitung ===
[[File:Raspberry-pico-w-on-breadboard.jpg|thumb|300x300px|Der Mikrokontroller wurde mittig am oberen Rand platziert]]

==== Verkabelung ====
Bevor man irgendetwas mit dem Mikrokontroller macht, empfiehlt es sich, einen Blick in die Dokumentation zuwerfen. Diese findet sich hier: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/pico-series.html#picow-technical-specification

Besonders wichtig ist das sogenannte "Pinout", also die Nummerierung der verschiedenen Pins und ihre Funktionen. Zum Pinout des Raspberry Pico W geht es hier: https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/picow/PicoW-A4-Pinout.pdf

:: 1. Als erstes den Mikrokontroller mittig auf das Steckbrett stecken. Durch die vielen Pins des Mikrokontrollers kann das eventuell etwas Kraft benötigen. Tipp: Wer später leichter die verschiedenen Pins finden will, kann den Mikrokontroller so platzieren, dass die Nummerierung des Steckbretts zu der des Pinouts des Mikrokontrollers passt.
:: 2. Damit wir später unsere verschiedenen Komponenten mit Strom versorgen können und es dabei nicht unübersichtlich wird, verbinden wir zuerst Pin 36 ( <code>3V3(OUT)</code>) mit einer der Plus (<code>+</code>) Schienen sowie Pin 38 (<code>GND</code>) mit der Minus (<code>-</code>) Schiene des Steckbretts. [[File:Raspberry-Pico-W-on-breadboard-power-connected.jpg|none|thumb]]
:: 3. Als nächstes können wir den Feuchtigkeits-Sensor verbinden. Dafür müssen wir zuerst Kabel mit Steckern an beiden Enden in das Kabel des Feuchtigkeits-Sensors stecken, da wir die Kabel sonst nicht in das Steckbrett stecken können. Dann können wir das rote Kabel (<code>VCC</code>) des Feuchtigkeits-Sensors in die <code>+</code>-Schiene und das schwarze Kabel (<code>GND</code>) in die <code>-</code>-Schiene stecken, sodass der Sensor mit 3 Volt Spannung versorgt wird.
:: Nun können wir das gelbe Kabel (<code>AOUT</code>) mit dem Pin 31 (<code>GPIO26 ADC0</code>) des Mikrokontrollers verbinden. Die Pins 31, 32 und 34 sind besonders, da sie analoge Werte einlesen können. Diese können wir später in Prozent-Feuchtigkeit umrechnen.
[[File:Moisture-sensor-with-connected-cables.jpg|thumb|Die Kabel in den Stecker des zum Feuchtigkeits-Sensors gehörenden Kabels stecken. Welche Farben die Kabel haben, ist prinzipiell egal, jedoch muss man aufpassen, dass man die verschiedenen Kabel bzw. ihre Funktion am Ende dann nicht vertauscht.|left]]
[[File:Raspberry-pico-w-with-connected-moisture-sensor.jpg|thumb|Das gelbe Kabel ist mit dem Pin 31 verbunden, der ADC kann (ADC = Analog to Digital Converter)|445x445px]]

 
:: 4. Zuletzt schließen wir noch das Lautsprecher-Modul an. Auch hier schließen wir wieder <code>VCC</code> an die <code>+</code>-Schiene sowie <code>GND</code> an die <code>-</code>-Schiene des Steckbretts.
:: Außerdem schließen wir ein Kabel (im Bild weiß) an den <code>P-E</code> Pin des Lautsprecher-Moduls. Das andere Ende des Kabels stecken wir an den Pin 27 (<code>GPIO21</code>) des Mikrokontrollers.
[[File:Raspberry-pi-pico-with-connected-sound-module.jpg|none|thumb|Über das weiße Kabel können wir dem Lautsprecher-Modul ein Signal geben, die aufgenommene Tonspur abzuspielen.]]

==== Verbindung zum Mikrokontroller herstellen ====
Zur Programmierung nutzen wir [https://microblocks.fun/ MicroBlocks]. Die "Entwicklungsumgebung" kann in jedem chromium basiertem Browser geöffnet werden (also Google Chrome, Edge, ... aber nicht Safari oder Firefox).

Den Mikrokontroller mit dem USB Kabel mit dem Computer verbinden und einfach die Seite [https://microblocks.fun/run/microblocks.html hier] aufrufen. Anschließend auf <code>verbinden</code> klicken und dann die Option <code>verbinden (USB)</code> wählen.

Im sich öffnenden Dialog des Browsers den Eintrag wählen, welcher <code>Pico W</code> enthält (der genaue Name kann vom Bild abweichen) und <code>verbinden</code> drücken.
[[File:Microblocks-connect-button.png|left|thumb|400x400px]][[File:Microbits-connect-browser-dialog.png|thumb|400x400px]] Nun ist MicroBlocks mit dem Mikrokontroller verbunden und bereit, durch das Ziehen und Verbinden der verschiedenen Blöcke den Mikrokontroller zu programmieren.

=== Programmierung ===
Unser Programm muss insgesamt drei Dinge tun:

* einen Wert aus dem Feuchtigkeits-Sensor lesen
* daraus einen Prozentwert berechnen
* je nach dem, ob der Prozentwert unseren definierten Schwellenwert unterschreitet, das Signal an das Lautsprecher-Modul schicken, sodass die vorher aufgenommene Tonspur abgespielt wird.

Um den Feuchtigkeits-Sensor auslesen zu können, brauchen wir den Block <code>lies analogen Pin</code> aus dem Menü <code>Pins</code>:
[[File:Microblocks-get-adc-pin.png|none|thumb|400x400px]]
Diesen Block ziehen wir nun auf die große weiße Fläche, wo wir unsere Blöcke sammeln und geben in das Feld wo vorher eine <code>1</code> stand jetzt <code>26</code> ein. Die 26 steht für die Zahl hinter dem "GPIO", an der wir vorher das Kabel für die Sensor-Daten verbunden hatten, nämlich Pin 31 (<code>GPIO'''26''' ADC0</code>).

Wenn wir jetzt auf unseren Block klicken, wird dieser ausgeführt:
[[File:Microbits-analog-read.png|none|thumb|600x600px]]
Vorausgesetzt, der Sensor ist korrekt verbunden und noch trocken, sollte nun eine Zahl im hohen dreistelligen Bereich angezeigt werden. Den ausgegeben Wert merken wir uns oder schreiben ihn auf, denn diesen brauchen wir später zum Kalibieren und für die Umrechnung in Prozent.
[[File:Moisture-sensor-in-water.jpg|left|thumb|273x273px|Der Sensor muss nicht zwangsweise bis zur Markierung im Wasser stehen.]][[File:Moisture-sensor-max-depth-mark.jpg|thumb|300x300px|Oberhalb der Markierung beginnt die Elektronik, die '''nicht''' wasserfest ist.]]
Als nächstes stellen wir den Feuchtigkeits-Sensor maximal bis zur Markierung ins Wasser, um den Wert zu bekommen, welcher bei völliger Nässe vom Mikrokontroller gelesen wird:[[File:Microbits-analog-read-water-value.png|thumb|600x600px|Der Wert im Wasser sollte deutlich unter dem "trocken"-Wert liegen.|none]]
