Hacking my garage door with the Raspberry Pi Pico W

Подробнее о видео

Now my wife doesn't get angry at me for leaving the garage door open all day!

Here's the open source Raspberry Pi Pico W garage door sensor project, with instructions for how you can set up the same thing at your house:

And here are the items I purchased to complete the installation (some are affiliate links):

- Seco-Larm SM-4201-LQ Overhead Door Sensor:
- RPi Pico Terminal Block Breakout Board:
- Small breadboards for prototyping:
- Breadboard solderless jumper wires:

You can also buy the Pico WH ('W with Headers') if you want to avoid having to solder headers on the Pico W yourself.
