Pi Pico W Telegram Bot Controller
Controlling Appliances with Telegram and Pi Pico W — A Complete IoT Kit
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 turning on your room’s fan from your phone, miles away, with a simple message. This kit lets you build precisely that — a Telegram bot that receives commands and toggles a real relay and visual LEDs, all driven by the Raspberry Pi Pico W’s WiFi. Whether you’re preparing a CBSE Class 12 physics investigatory project on IoT or a B.Tech ECE mini project, you’ll have a working demo of wireless appliance control in just 3-4 hours.
What You'll Build
A fully functional IoT controller that listens for Telegram messages and controls a 5V relay module alongside indicator LEDs. You’ll wire the relay to switch a small appliance or light, and the LEDs will show status. Perfect for remote home automation, agriculture pump control demos, or a Smart India Hackathon prototype.
What You'll Learn
- Setting up MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico W and connecting to Wi-Fi
- Creating a Telegram bot and handling incoming messages using HTTP polling
- Interfacing a 5V relay module with a flyback diode for safe inductive load switching
- Controlling multiple LEDs as status indicators based on bot commands

Who This Kit Is For
This kit is tailored for CBSE Class 11–12 students working on physics or computer science investigatory projects that require IoT concepts. B.Tech ECE and EEE students will find it ideal for mini projects and Smart India Hackathon prototypes. ATL tinkering labs and makerspaces stocked with Raspberry Pi ecosystems will value the pre-tested, ready-to-code bundle. Even IIT, NIT, VIT, and BITS students needing a quick proof-of-concept for IoT messaging can hit the ground running.
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?
The AI companion provides interactive, step-by-step debugging, and you can reach our team via WhatsApp for direct troubleshooting assistance.
Do I need to create my own Telegram bot?
Yes, you’ll need a free bot token from BotFather on Telegram; the kit guide and AI companion walk you through the simple setup process.
Can the relay switch 230V AC appliances?
The relay module is rated for 250V AC, but for safety and learning, we strongly recommend using low-voltage DC loads like a 12V lamp or fan under supervision.
Is prior coding experience necessary?
Basic familiarity with Python helps, but the AI companion explains every code block so intermediate learners can build and comprehend the full logic easily.
Pico W receives Telegram messages over WiFi and toggles relay and LED in response.
