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€
- Mini-LoRa - DIY
- ESP32 with OLED and SX1278 - "Heltec WiFi LoRa 32"
Simple Dev Boards
- 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
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)
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
