Pico Spy

Create a basic intruder alarm with the Raspberry Pi Pico and protect your bedrooms from being invaded by parents and siblings!
We will be using the the MicroPython library to create this. We will start by controlling an LED using the Pico and then continue to add a buzzer to create a basic intruder alarm!
The workshop includes a Pi Pico and an electronics kit containing all the parts you need that are yours to keep.
The session is aimed at children aged 11 years and older.
This workshop session is priced at £45.50 and includes the admission price of 1 child with an accompanying adult to the museum and the cost of the kit that you will take away! For participants aged 14 or under, we require an accompanying adult to attend the workshop alongside them.
Date: Tuesday 28th July 2026
Time: 2 pm – 4 pm
This workshop will start promptly at 2 pm, so please arrive at least 15 minutes early.
