So nice! Please oh please please, team up with Chinese mass manufacturer so we can buy these instead of Wemos, Lolin, or LILYGO!
I’d also be extremely happy if these were uploaded to the PCBWay market so that we could order them assembled and choose different board colours
imo it's better sold as end-user product as the functionality is already helpful but make it still programmable unlike commonly sold smart devices
@@JB-fh1bb this!! obviously the manufacturered option would be more ideal, but just having them on the PCBway marketplace would be incredible
What do you say, @maker.moekoe?
Very, very clever!! Your steady hand makes me think you're not a coffee drinker.
This is actually a true fact 😂
The Picoclick is an amazing and pragmatic idea. It's modularity and connectivity lend it to a number of customizable applications. The beginning of this video, detailing custom assembly of pcb circuits also very helpful.
This and the hint of an upcoming project have me following this channel for more! Also binge watch prior videos. ;)
Thank you for your feedback! Really appreciate it 🙉 Hope you won't be disappointed
Soo cool to see Picoclick continuing to expand and improve!
Very cool. Love seeing a whole family of devices being created.
amazing... this is one of the best and most complete ESP32 projects i have seen
Thanks for supporting Home Assistant intergrating. Currently, ESPHome devices are bone of my smart home system. Your platform is suitable for portable devices in my feature projects.
Wow. This is simply incredible. Amazing job.
Thank you 😍
Genuius 👏🏼👏🏼. Amazingly executed and so many possibilities.
Endless Possibilities.. Great Work, Thanks for sharing
Thanks for your comment!
i like the teeny tiny fpc. very flexible design
Wow! Alle Achtung, ich finde es super was du machst. Einfach genial 🤩 👍🏻
You are the best pcb maker in the world. I love your project!
But he just orders them online! he doesn't *make* them; he only designs them!
Very creative and smart. You will be a part of our future :)
You have mastered putting the most funtionaity into a tiny space while it's effiecent
Glad to hear, thank you!
BTW, you inadvertently helped me solve the central problem to a project in back of my head; how to detect if a door is completely closed.
TOF distance measurement should work great!!
Veery nice Mokebe San!
Our hats off to you!👏🤟
Man, this is pure beauty. Would you agree on doing a tutorial on how to design a pcb? like how you choose an mcu, and how you design the circuit around it. I truly would love to make my own pcb for my project, but I don't know where to start
Look up Phil’s lab in the meantime
@@newsogn5148 great suggestion! I also advise to take a look at philslab!
Fire up easyEDA and make a schematic. See how it goes. Take feedback, go to electronics forums and subreddits.
@@sounddrill much easier said than done. I had problems when making my own PCB and without an example to compare against it's very difficult to figure out where the source of the problem is without an electrical engineering degree
Very well done!
Thank you :)
Amazing job!
Thank you!
Such a cool projekt
Thank you! 😋
Insane! Imagine the Picoclick with the IMU board (LSM6DS3 + LIS2MDL) inside a 3d printing ball to controle the orientation of a 3d model in Solidworks.
Thank you for the board files🥰
You are like a machine! A pick and place machine . . . I'll see myself out
Wow! Wish I had your skills!
So cool!!
Congratulations 🎉👏
Very very cool! it would be nice to have a little epaper extension that could be really useful as a lowpower device
Indeed! But are there epaper displays with I2C? I think they're all using SPI for communication. Maybe you should check my Paperclick video, it combines a Picoclick and a 1,02" epaper on a single PCB 👍🏻
6:36 That's cool. I want one! xD
These extensions look awesome! Is there an eta on when the picoclick will be back in stock?
Thank you ❤❤❤
2nd best thing after watching baked bread 🍞
it's fantastic! Are you planning to make extension boards for microphone or webcam for voice commands or video surveillance?
Merci pour cette vidéo
Any plans to include a microphone module? or something out there I can integrate to the current picoclick? Great work.
Pcbway wanted $139 on these guys and thats before shipping =/. Yeesh.
Great work! Are you also selling your Picoclick devices with cases/enclosures? BTW, if you are targeting an English audience can also switch all your interfaces to English, such as Home Assistant, IDEs, etc? Cheers!
This is so cool. Is it open HW or will it be a product?
Cool example with the robot and remote 😎
Perhaps remote can act as a Space mouse? 🤔🤓
Nice! I am working on a grounds up IoT platform that is an alternative to home assistant it's still in very early development but these are awesome, can't wait untill my project is farther along so that I can test devices like these!
Very nice! - Can I ask, what is the name of the magnetic PCB holder your are using? - I cannot seem to find the same on google but they look really good.
that sound track gave me a brain hemorrhage
Here is a free tip for everyone having issues with esp-now and fixed channel/jumping channel routers: you can add a message "ping" to all slaves that when waking up without knowing the channel they would send out on ALL channels and wait for response (10-100ms). The bridge connected to AP will pick up the message on one of those channels and will answer back with a PONG that contains the correct channel (it can happen that channel 2 message gets picked up by bridge that is on channel 3 or channel 4).
Once the slave knows the correct channel it then can store it in the RTC memory so with the next wakeup it wont need to do the energy consumptive question-answer.
You are welcome.
Nice extensions! You said that the accelerometer board only consumed 9 uA, but how is that possible with two leds constantly on? Did you mean mA? Or did you only reference the accelerometer board itself and not the consumption of the C3 board?
Check the last video for further details. The motion board is able to activate the Picoclick, so when talking about the 9µA the Picoclick is deactivated and the motion sensor is waiting on a software configurable motion which will throw an interrupt to activate the Picoclick. While waiting on that specific interrupt condition, the sensor uses 9µA. Add 2µA for the Picoclick (in standby) and you'll get the total consumption of 11µA while waiting on the trigger.
Perhaps you should expose a way to connect the two extensions right next to each other rather than the FPC? Perhaps just some exposed pads on the edge of the board under the FPC connectors. Or two sets on either side of the connectors. That would allow you to avoid the tiny FPC issue
That was all very cool, but I completely missed the motivation.
What is pico-click? Should I make it myself or can buy in the shop?
Great video, you have amazing skills! Love the different colour solder masks. What are the magnetic swivel PCB holders, they looks really useful - do you have a link to the store? thanks
Glad to hear so - thank you! These are omnifixo's which you will find here: omnifixo.com
@@makermoekoe thank you!!
@maker.moekoe what is the part number/supplier for the small PIR sensor you are using? I'm a new subscriber, love your projects!
1:45 poor cap got tombstoned 😄
Wow, good eyes 😄 I've rescued him quite fast so he is still alive hehe
awesome project with the pico, but why not make it with wireless charge? that can gain some space for more batery ( i thing)
Klasse Projekt ich warte jeden Tag auf ein neues Video. Ich hab jetzt auch mal ein PCB selber designed um es auch einmal auszuprobieren. Doch das war nur eine LED-Board. Ich hätte immer zu viel Angst, dass ich etwas falsch gemacht habe und ich das ganze Board dann wegschmeißen muss. Gab es je ein PCB das du wegschmeißen musstest? Ich liebe den Picoclick und jetzt mit den Extension boards noch mehr. ;)
Awesome work!, I am getting into more advance self teach electronics, and I fall in love with those FPC connectors, please allow me to ask, how much current can they handle?, I need to drive 15 8g micro servos in series (using i2c) for a costume, and I would love to connect them one to another using those cables, if you think they are not good for driving servos, which alternative you recommend? before your video I was looking into Pico-Molex connectors, but they are bulkier and the crimping tool can cost more than 600usd just for the tool :(, I love your channel, thanks in advance!
Where did you get those small omnidirectional wheels?
have you looked into using nrf chips?
Wait this mean it should be useable as a sensor for VR fullbody tracking, and with such a low power consumption it mean almost no reload periods :o
can you please tell me how your LDO works with battery protection, share some schematic regarding that
This is great! What battery are you using for this? When using WiFi the ESP32 consumes around ~200-500mA peak, you seem to have a LiPo which is less than
He actually measures the power consumption in his previous picoclick video I think. He uses some sort of latch for a deep sleep while still having great responsiveness and gets the current way down, its honestly amazing!
@@jaspervandenameele4834 Thanks for your reply! Yes I am aware about that, but I was mostly speaking about the intense peak current during transmission! Even for such a small time ~1-5 seconds a peak current of almost x10-20 times the size of the battery's capacity can instantly overdischarge it or let the voltage collapse instantly right? How does that part exactly work? WiFi on these chips is very power hungry!
Little bit surprised to see you pasting panels without your stencil jig, any specific reason?
Hehe, the stencil jig is equipped with the Picoclick stencil which is often used in the last time, so I decided to go with this method for the extension boards...
Can you make a video of how you integrate microprocessors into your project
VR lads, are yall thinking what im thinking??? Pico Click full body tracking with the 6 dof board???

Hello sir, I love electronics and I love to do maintenance for devices and invent devices, but I do not want the field of engineering. Which field do you advise me to learn in order to become an expert in electronics?
What's the name of the song playing at the start of the video?
🤖👍👍👍
1:58 human powered Pick and Place machine.
Man! from where I can start learning this stuff?
this IOT and electronic from total scratch
does these follow mesh networking
The ToF sensor bord seems to be missing in your gitbook.
True, I will add it right now!
Hey maker .moekoe, you’re doing something related as a profession, yes? or is it just a hobby?
What is the motion sensor name?
Hi bro how to make own Bluetooth headset video please
Thank you for another nice video.
But could you maybe do some of your viewers/makers a favor and also check the repositories on github for older projects from time to time? feels a bit like they are completely abandonded by you, which is really sad. E.g. I am currently trying to rebuild/improve your reflow oven pcb and working on the code also - but no response in git from you for weeks on that repo :(.
Open hw makers owe us nothing more. They especially don’t owe us free support.
@@OhHeyTrevorFlowers Nobody said he would owe us anything.
And who told you I was only looking for support?
Have a look at the mentioned repository instead of doing accusations. Ty
@@5L4P5T1CK Showing up in a maker's unrelated video comments suggesting that they go do more work is a jerk move. If they didn't answer then they decided not to answer. But sure, keep on pushing people doing good work to go do more work.
@@OhHeyTrevorFlowers u are the jerk here dude. read my comment again, and maybe TRY to realize you are accusing sb of lurking for free help, while he is actually doing the opposite. You are a moron sir, and a really big one.I bet you dont even know what a github repo even is and you are just wrongly accusing ppl of asking others to work freely for them - while you clearly not got the point, that open source only works if CONTRIBUTIONS from others are not being ignored. Damn. What a jerk u are.
Just to give you some more idea : I have invested lots of my own money to successfully rebuild the mentioned project and I am currently working on improvements, that a) make the code run with newer IDE versions b) makes others able to also build it more easily and c) possibly add additional (obvious) functionality. For free for all who may want to build it too / has already built it. This is what open source really looks like. Collaborate together to improve.
Whooooooiaaaaaaa epico epico. Keep on Firefucking🧡🧡🧡
🤘🏻🤘🏻🥳
It only consumes 9 micro Ohms of current XD 3:59
Please release the omnidirectional robot video as soon as possible! I was planning a project for my robotics assignment, and that video seems like, will contain a lot of useful information I need!
baattery life?
Hello I have a project for you for local wireless signal transmission
Cosmos electronic Baukasten 🤣
Love the pico click and subscribed to your channel. But PLEASE get rid of the terrible and loud music. The music does not add anything and makes me not want to watch your videos.
You are out of picKlick stock :(
Don’t show this video Arduboy😂
PCBway supports the CCP!
good day sir, how can we contact you?
