The PICAXE microcontroller is an inexpensive tiny computer sitting in a microchip. It can be programmed by you to control gadgets, your inventions or your creations and the list of these are endless. Your ideas or imagination is your only limiting factor. Alarm systems, keypad entry systems, electronic dice, games and colour sensors are but a few. These are easily achievable within the PICAXE environment.
You, the PICAXE microcontroller and the software that allows you to program it can create or develop interactive projects with it's outside world. It can respond to sensors, lights, motors, switches, solenoids and all manner of input and output mechanisms and all sorts of contraptions.
This book is volume 1 part 2 and continues the projects for PICAXE microcontrollers. Part 1 has 19 projects and this book takes them to 31. The projects are illustrated with pictures, electronic schematics and photographs of the working project. Part 1 can also be obtained to complete the total of 31 projects.

...is there to assist in the projects and all code is available for free download using the code from within the book.
I hope that the reader is inspired to create their own projects after reading this book.

N.B. This is part 2 of 2 and continues immediately from volume 1 part 1. If you are just starting out with PICAXE microcontrollers I suggest that you to obtain part 1 as it contains a lot of starting information about the microcontrollers.
