Research
Wat kind of node options are out there?
Arduino shields
Stuff you can put right onto your Arduino and make it talk LoRaWAN
- Dragino LoRa shield
- Based on HopeRF RFM95W
- Severin has one
- Dragino LoRa BEE
- based on SX1276/SX1278
- Heiko ordered some
Complete boards
A complete combination of LoRaWAN radio and microcontroller, straight from the shelf.
- PyCom LoPy (WiFi, LoRa & BLE) - 34,95€ @ EXP-Tech
- Adafruit Feather 32u4 with LoRa (LoRa, LiPo Charger) - 36,95€ @ EXP-Tech
- SODAQ LoraOne (LoRa, LiPo, Solar) - ~95€
- Badgerboard (LoRa, LiPo, Temp/Humidity) - ~55€
- ESP32 with OLED and SX1278 - "Heltec WiFi LoRa 32"
- Some blog post - Uses other LoRa lib
- TTN Forum topic
- Buy on AliExpress
- TTN Labs Story - Contains pin assingment for LMiC on that device
const lmic_pinmap lmic_pins = {
.nss = 18,
.rxtx = LMIC_UNUSED_PIN,
.rst = 14,
.dio = {26, 33, 32},
};
- Other ESP32 LoRa Board
- Newer version of the Heltec Board?
- TTGo
- Article on how to start using it
Simple Dev Boards
- Our own board: Arduino Pro Mini + RFM95 (based on TTN Amsterdam design below)
- TTN Amsterdam: Arduino Pro Mini + RFM95 + BMP280
- HowTo (Some more information in the comment of this meetup)
- Buy the board (via [1])
- Complete Kit
- Design files on GitHub
- TTN Stuttgart: BluePill + RFM25 + BMP280
- Presentation
- GitHub Repo (w/o Hardware design still)
- Made by @orangeway
- Other BluePill (STM32) + RFM95 based board
- TTN Ulm PCB: Arduino ProMini, RFM95
- Mini-LoRa
- TTN Madrid: Arduino, RFM95, Sensors
- ablexomat: ProMini, RFM95, Energy Harvesting IC:
- MiniPill LoRa (STM32)
LoRaWAN Testers
Our Nodes
Some of the nodes we build at the lab
Test Unit One
Built by Severin
- Arduino Uno
- Dragino LoRa shield
- GPS module
ProMini Node
- The TTN Amsterdam node, in a small power distribution box, with I2C sensor (BME/P 280)
- Built as part of our first LoRa workshop
- Powered by 2 AAA batteries, which also fit inside the case
Ideas for Sensors & Nodes
Traffic counter
Count cars on a road. (Maybe also bikes on bike lanes?)
- Slidedeck with different measurement types [2]
- Guide for building one using air pressure tube
- Sensor using ultrasound, SR04 sensor
- More information on ultrasound sensors
- Description of Oxford Floud Network Sensor (also uses ultrasound sensors, by Maxbotix)
Weather & Air Quality Monitoring
- City Air Quality
- hackadayio project
- NOx, CO, O3, PM2.5, ..
- Arry Of Things
Others, no futher details yet
- Weather station (Temperature, Humidity, Air Pressure)
- Water temperature (lake, garden pond)
- Water level (cistern, garden pond, river)
- PIR sensor for movement (garage, selfstorage, ...)
- Also Door openings
- Offgrid solar monitoring
- Postbox status -> "You got mail!"
- Garden/Plant monitoring
- NOx
