🧩 1.6 Connecting the Pieces#
🔰 Tutorial#
Warning
As a temporary workaround to the issue described in orgs/micropython#15112, add urequests_2.py [permalink] to your microcontroller, and change import urequests to import urequests_2 as urequests in the code below. See orgs/micropython#15112 and micropython/micropython-lib#861 for ongoing updates. The corresponding assignment will also be affected, but this can be addressed using the same workaround.
Warning
Recently, HiveMQ Cloud changed such that hivemq-com-chain.der (a Certificate Authority (CA) file) is not transferrable across different broker instances. The latest hivemq-com-chain.der file from self-driving-lab-demo will be hard-coded to the self-driving-lab-demo public test credentials (i.e., what is used in Module 1 - Running the Demo), so the tutorials should run without issue as long as you are using that file. However, the assignment requires you to have your own HiveMQ Cloud broker instance, so you will need to generate a hivemq-com-chain.der file specific to your instance and upload it to your microcontroller in place of the default one.
You’ve made it to the final module of this microcourse! Well done 🥳. In this module, you will connect the pieces from previous modules into the “Hello World” of self-driving labs, from microcontroller programming and Bayesian optimization to hardware-software communication and data logging.
