24 alternatives to Pico W powered Munich public transportation departures LED panel
Micropython code for Pimoroni's Interstate 75w RP2040 board to display departure times of Munich public transport. It uses MVG API to fetch departure information for a predetermined set of stations
This project provides MicroPython code for displaying Munich public transportation departure times on a Pimoroni Interstate 75w LED panel powered by a Pico W microcontroller. The code fetches real-time departure… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. Pico W powered Munich public transportation departures LED panel launched in 2024; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

During a recent subway outage in San Francisco I decided to build a webapp in the spirit of "Do I Need an Umbrella," basically to answer the question "Should I take the subway or a bus?" In the interest of learning new tools I decided to vibe code it as much as possible. First, I had Claude Code write a background script to download images of the real-time circuit diagram of the subway, which are publicly available here: http://sfmunicentral.com/ Next I had it build an image labeler tool in tkinter, which turned out to need a lot of manual tweaking before I could even get to…

Hey HN community, I've recently embarked on a tinkering project that merges the versatility of the Badger 2040W with the practicality of an E-ink display. Inspired by the UK Rail departure boards, I've created an E-ink version that updates in real-time with departure information. Would love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, or similar projects you've come across!

This started out as a fork of pydoro and turned into a playground for dataclasses and strict mypy type checking. Some of the advanced features are - it writes the current status into .local/state/pomoglorbo for i3status/xbar - it is very configurable, including cmd hooks to run after a Pomodoro/break finishes or starts The layout is compact, and it runs well over SSH/Mosh/Tmux.

I've been trying to make accessible and beautiful GPIO pinouts since I started one for the Raspberry Pi in 2013 [1]. I've since given the Raspberry Pi Pico [2] and Pico 2 [3] microcontrollers the same treatment when they launched. Recently I've updated these with a new "Upside-down" view to complement the rear view, giving a pinout in the right orientation to match your project. The Pico sites are all hand-coded single HTML pages with supporting CSS and minimal JS. They are set up to optionally install as a "Desktop" web app. They also degrade into a somewhat usable table in lieu of CSS and…

This was something I built while trying to look for housing in Toronto that was decently transit-accessible to my office while still cheap. The backend is written in Rust. It parses public GTFS data from transit agencies and performs a simple heuristics-based BFS on the bus lines to calculate how long to reach all points in a city. The frontend uses React and Mapbox GL to render each individual road segment based on how long it takes to reach. This project was a great excuse to learn Rust, deployments, and mapping. The source code is here if you are interested:…

Hello, I was running around Germany, hectically navigating public transportation, and getting lost all the time. I noticed that every station had i platforms, each used lists of n buses (trains, whatever) arriving, each has their list of m destinations. That means I would be scanning i x n x m items just to see if I was at the correct stop. As I was nervous, for every bus that arrived, I would rescan the list of stops to double check. I began thinking how I could make a better system. Linked is a very shoddy mockup of how bloom filters could be used to allow passengers O(1) lookup time for…

MicroLua allows programming the RP2040 microcontroller in Lua. It packages the latest Lua interpreter with bindings for the Pico SDK and a cooperative threading library. MicroLua is licensed under the MIT license. I wanted to learn about Lua and about the RP2040 microcontroller. This is the result :)

Modo▲148I’ve built hardware projects for years, and the gap between “I want X” and “parts ordered, files ready to print” always took weeks. Modo compresses that. Describe what you want (e.g. “a portable CO2 monitor with a display and buzzer”) and it generates: - A bill of materials with real components (MPNs, not hallucinated parts) - A printable enclosure generated from actual part dimensions - Wiring diagrams, firmware boilerplate, and assembly instructions - Design validation (power budget, pin conflicts, mechanical fit) Everything streams in real time as each phase completes. The key idea is…

Hi all! I'm a 17-year old self-taught developer just starting to tap into the mobile world! :3 This summer, I've worked on a minimalist distance-based alarm clock app that wakes you up before you miss your stop! Check it out here! http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/commuter-buddy/cb9b5107-41e0-4d2b-b0d6-110fe555fc3b Feedback and comments are welcome, thanks :)

As a side project I built Sydney Transit Graph - a visualisation of real-time Sydney bus congestion. Each line on the graph (a Marey chart) represents a bus completing its route (percentage) over time.
