batica81 / microphone-library-for-pico

Capture audio from a microphone on your Raspberry Pi Pico or any RP2040 based board. 🎤

FORK CHANGES

An example for using analogue microphone over USB is added.

So far only 16khz works.

It is important to use some kind of active microphone, as just connecting to a simple microphone will not work.

There is a lot of noise, probably due to USB connection.

This is just a proof of concept, and possibly a basis for further research and experimenting.

Cloning

git clone https://github.com/ArmDeveloperEcosystem/microphone-library-for-pico.git 

Building

1. Set up the Pico C/C++ SDK
2. Set PICO_SDK_PATH

export PICO_SDK_PATH=/path/to/pico-sdk

3. Create build dir, run cmake and make:

mkdir build
cd build
