Pi Pico Field Data Logger
Raspberry Pi Pico Field Data Logger Kit — Solar-Powered, GPS-Tagged Sensor Logging
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Imagine monitoring soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and GPS location in a remote field, completely off-grid, with data recorded every 5 minutes to an SD card — all inside a rugged waterproof enclosure. This kit turns the Raspberry Pi Pico into a standalone field data logger, perfect for agriculture drones, environmental science studies, or Smart India Hackathon projects. No more worrying about power or weather; it just works.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble and program a solar-charged, weatherproof sensor station that logs DHT22 climate readings, soil moisture levels, and GPS coordinates to a microSD card at regular intervals. The system runs autonomously on dual 18650 batteries recharged by a 6W solar panel, making it ideal for outdoor deployment in fields, gardens, or remote monitoring stations.
What You'll Learn
- Integrating multiple I2C and UART sensors (DHT22, soil moisture, GPS, RTC) on the Raspberry Pi Pico
- Managing solar power with TP4056 charging module and 18650 lithium cells for off-grid projects
- Writing robust data-logging firmware in MicroPython to record timestamped, geo-tagged sensor data to SD
- Designing and housing electronics in a waterproof enclosure for long-term field reliability

Who This Kit Is For
Designed for CBSE Class 11-12 students building innovative environmental monitoring projects, B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates working on IoT or agricultural automation, and participants in Smart India Hackathon or ATL Tinkering Labs. If you need a reliable, self-powered field data logger that teaches real-world embedded skills, this kit was built for you.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code included in the box to start a conversation with your AI build companion, trained on this specific data logger project. If you need human help, reach out via WhatsApp — we respond within hours.
Can I deploy this data logger in rainy weather during monsoon?
The included waterproof enclosure with cable glands protects the electronics from rain and dust. The solar panel is rated for outdoor use, and the batteries are safely housed inside. It is field-tested for typical Indian monsoon conditions.
Does the kit include the code for data logging?
Yes, you get the complete MicroPython code pre-tested for this hardware. The AI companion will also help you customize the sampling interval, sensor calibration, and file format.
Is this kit suitable for a B.Tech final-year project?
Absolutely. Many B.Tech students have used similar data loggers for agricultural IoT, weather stations, and environmental monitoring. Adding this kit to your project demonstrates hands-on integration of sensors, power management, and data logging.
Solar-powered Pi Pico logs GPS-tagged DHT22 and soil data to SD every 5 minutes in waterproof field enclosure.
