A brand new #Pybricks #MicroPython beta release is out now!

Highlights:

  • Support for reading the robot heading with the gyro.
  • New GyroDriveBase class! It's the DriveBase you love, but it uses the gyro for straights and turns.
  • Under the hood improvements as we prepare for wireless communication between hubs!

Try it out at: https://beta.pybricks.com/

The monthly #MicroPython meetup in Melbourne is tomorrow - I've been able to attend remotely for the past year or so, and it is always super interesting. Take a look.

One of my projects is built around the #RTL8762 BLE MCU. My goal is to port #MicroPython to it.

marble,

This is on one hand a bummer, since this now means I have wasted quite some time reversing and scouting for resources...
On the other hand this is great of course, since now I can simple make a port of #MicroPython without some weird third party SDK repositories.

marble,

I finally reached another big mile stone for this project, namely rebasing my past #MicroPython code for the #RTL8762C onto the current main branch.

https://github.com/cyber-murmel/micropython/tree/rtl8762c-port

It compiles, can be flashed and runs.
The documentation is still lacking, so if anyone wants to try this for some reason, ping me and we can get you up and running.

For now I'm moving on to all the interesting stuff, like GPIOs, flash access, LCD etc. :3
