Raspberry Pi Pico W AQI Display

This project builds a WiFi-based display which can show you the AQI from a PurpleAir air quality sensor.

This project is a work in progress. The code is ugly and not polished. It's kind of a mess. Don't consider this an official release or anything. Really you should just move on and forget you saw this.

Still interested?

Ok, read on.

Required Hardware

Software

The software runs in Micropython. Load the wireless micropython firmware to the Raspberry Pi Pico W board and then use a tool like Thonny to copy all of the files in src over to the Raspberry Pi Pico W board. Make sure you edit settings.py to include the IP address of your PurpleAir sensor, as well as your WiFi SSID and password!
