Project description
Project Overview Inspired by drone swarms, this project aims to synchronize and control multiple Tesla coils through a master/slave architecture. The baseline hardware combines Pico 2, I2CEncoder, SPI OLED, SD, and SPI Ethernet (WIZnet). WIZnet was the natural choice; since the W6100 lacked MicroPython support, the prototype used W5500 + MicroPython, while the high-performance slave target was W6100 + C. Key Features WIZnet Ethernet: Provides low-latency and reliable UDP frame reception. Implemented in MicroPython (W5500) and C (W6100). Flexible UI: Built on the MicroPython uMenu library…
