### Hardware
|

|
||||
You will need the following hardware to make the device:
|
||||
- Raspberry Pi Pico 2
|
||||
- Raspberry Pi Pico or Raspbery Pi Pico 2
|
||||
- USB extension cable
|
||||
- light dependent resistor such as GL5528 (specific part number may vary)
|
||||
- 10k ohm resistor (resistance value may vary)
|
||||
|
||||
You will need to cut the USB extension in half and connect the wires from the
|
||||
female end to the Raspberry Pi Pico 2. The default configuration is to attach
|
||||
female end to the Raspberry Pi Pico (2). The default configuration is to attach
|
||||
the USB's green wire to pin 1/GP0 and USB's white wire to pin 2/GP1. You will
|
||||
also need to connect the red to 5V VBUS/VSYS (since you'll be powering from the
|
||||
USB host device, VBUS should be fine) and the black to any ground pin. Pin 38
|
||||
is the closest and most convenient. While you can connect the Raspberry Pi Pico

to the host device using the micro USB port and a micro USB cable, since

|

you have already sacrificed half of the USB extension cable, you might as well
|

use the male half to create a standard USB-A connection. If you wish to do so,
|
||||
then simply connect the red and black wires of the male connector end to
|
||||
VBUS (5V) and GND, respectively. For the data wires, you can solder them to the
|

two test points TP2 and TP3 on the back of the Raspberry Pi Pico 2. The white
