    I got the hid example in the link of my previous post working in circuitpython. I downloaded CP version 6.3.0 from here and installed it on the pico. Indeed, the HID was missing when I tried to run the example. I downloaded the bundle version 6.x from here, and from that bundle I copied the directory named 'adafruit_hid' into the lib directory of the pico. I placed the example code into the code.py file but had to change a couple of pin assignments:

  • Installing ulab with PyCharm
    2 projects | /r/raspberrypipico | 14 Dec 2022
    Hi guys, So I'm trying to program a Mikrobus rp2040 with PyCharm and I can run some basic code with it. What I need help with is installing the ulab for the numpy-like array operations that I need for my project. I tried all the instructions there, I'm not very experienced with manual installation of these libraries.

    https://freertos.org/ for example is a popular OS, that has realtime capabilities and fits in 9KB of RAM. https://micropython.org is basically a µC OS too, understands Python 3 Syntax and works with 16KB of RAM already. It might appear more convoluted at first, but you can get it to be real-time too by following the same principles as in any RTOS (react to stuff by means of ISR, allocate memory only initially and then work in place to prevent fragmentation, switch of GC and so on). Image processing is just linear algebra for the most part, and there's even an Numpy equivalent available to crunch that. There are also two decorators in Micropython that allow for compilation for most of the Python syntax, which would work for stuff that can not be written down in a vectorized way.

    Has anyone of you managed to install a micropython version with ulab for your esp32? I tried the procedure on the ulab github but without any succes. When I try it stops at sth like: "no submodule. stop."
