A MicroPython code example running on a Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W microcontroller connected to a micro servo motor, an RGB LED, a passive piezo buzzer, an OLED display module (SSD1306) and one of several input components - an accelerometer, push button, motion sensor, photoresistor, joystick, microphone, rotary encoder, or another sensor - on a breadboard to read the input data from the selected component and interpolate it to a buzzer frequency, an LED color and a servo angle, and display the values on the display
This is the kitchen sink catch-all script that lets you mix and match different inputs and outputs. The sensor readings are converted to LED color, servo angle, buzzer frequency and text on the OLED screen. Refer to the relevant circuit diagrams above based on the input you choose.
Create a new file in Thonny, with file name mix_and_match.py. Copy and paste the code below into the file you created.

# DESCRIPTION
# This is the kitchen sink catch-all script that lets you mix and match
# different inputs and outputs. The sensor readings are converted to LED color,
# servo angle, buzzer frequency and text on the OLED screen.
# CONNECTIONS REQUIRED
# Connect Servo
# Pins: Brown: GND, Red: VCC, Yellow: GP9
# Select an input by modifying the input variable below, and connect
# the corresponding module using pins listed next to its name.
input = 2

1: "Accelerometer", # Pins: GND => GND, VCC => VCC, SDA => GP6, SCL => GP7 (Connect ADXL345 module using only the 4 pins on the right side)
2: "Buttons", # No additional connections are needs. The 6 buttons are connected to GP0 through GP5
