This really helps your car save gasoline when stopped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But some people prefer to not have it on and I can see why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A while ago I was in a modern rental car. I found with the auto-stop-start system enabled, I had to &#8220;plan&#8221; my brake pressure so I could start the engine before the light turned green. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes I would forget and then sit at a green for longer than I would like. I would compensate by stepping harder on the gas. Not recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some car manufacturers don&#8217;t give you a choice in disabling the auto stop-start feature. If you want to disable it, you have to press the button every time you drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not anymore!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Project outline<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/picockpit.com\/raspberry-pi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/servo-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"servo pressing keyboard button\" class=\"wp-image-2305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/picockpit.com\/raspberry-pi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/servo-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/picockpit.com\/raspberry-pi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/servo-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/picockpit.com\/raspberry-pi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/servo-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/picockpit.com\/raspberry-pi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/servo-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/picockpit.com\/raspberry-pi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/servo.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Raspberry Pi Pico with servo on keyboard.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>What you&#8217;re seeing in the video above is a commercial product, but it can be easily accomplished with a Raspberry Pi Pico and a SG90 servo.

This is adjusted by the valued passed into <strong>pwn_duty_ns<\/strong>, which is in nanoseconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2 million nanoseconds (2,000,000) equals a full rotation and 500,000 is a full rotation in the opposite direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, I only used 1,000,000 to 2,000,000 nanoseconds, rather than the full range of the servo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, you need to know how to deactivate your car&#8217;s start-stop feature. Some require you to press and hold and so you will need to put adjust the <strong>sleep<\/strong> length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thirdly, you only want this to operate when the engine is on, and not when you start the radio. This is probably the biggest challenge because there&#8217;s no easy way to tell the Pico when the engine is on.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/picockpit.com\/raspberry-pi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/pico-servo.gif\" alt=\"raspberry pi pico servo\" class=\"wp-image-2309\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Pair the Raspberry Pi Pico with a wireless controller and you&#8217;ll never get up from your bed to turn your lights off again!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>But the same project &#8212; operating a servo with the Raspberry Pi Pico can actually be very beneficial for many other projects, such as a switch toggle.

The benefit here is that the robomower can also autonomously navigate to the backyard and mow grass there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A robomower is a modern solution to reduce the repetitive task of mowing a lawn.
