ESP32 LoRaWAN Node using Arduino

Bikash Narayan Panda

To test out the recent addition in my lab that is the LoRa gateway, I needed one LoRa node also. LoRa modules are available to be used with Arduino as well as Raspberry Pi and are pretty cheap too. However, you can get complete LoRa module with ESP32 and OLED display at pretty low price from Banggood, and they fit the purpose. And by using these, you don’t need to jumble around jumpers. In this post, I have covered how to make a simple, cheap LoRa node that can send…

Cheap LoRa Gateway using Pi & RAK831

Bikash Narayan Panda
RAK831 LoRa Gateway

Lately, I have been working with LoRAWAN and I don’t have Lora gateway around. As you might be knowing LoRAWAN network requires a gateway to push data to the internet. As Lora is not an IP based protocol the gateway helps it in doing so. Basically, multiple LoRAWAN nodes transmit data to the gateway and the gateway transfers the concentrated data to server backend. Server backend which resides in the cloud contains a network server which helps in managing the network and the application server which is responsible for the data and…

RPi GPIO Programming using Arduino Web IDE

Recently Arduino has launched support for programming ARM-based SBCs by using the Arduino web editor and Raspberry Pi is one of the SBCs in the list. This video is all about the basic setup to get started with the programming of the Raspberry Pi GPIOs by using Arduino codes. The setup is pretty simple and will help you if you are more comfortable in the Arduino ecosystem as compared to python. More depth functionalities are yet to be checked.   Bikash Narayan PandaDeveloper, Tinkere, a proud Dad.. love to spend…

IOT: Power outlet controlled from internet using WeMOS

Bikash Narayan Panda
IOT Based Power Outlet

This is a simple project to make IOT enabled power outlet. This video is around WeMOS and demonstrates how to use WeMOS with thingspeak to control some loads in my home. This project lets you control your devices which you need to connect to the output sockets. As an online server, I have used Thinspeak.com but you can use any server but you just need REST API. Check out the video to get started. Bikash Narayan PandaDeveloper, Tinkere, a proud Dad.. love to spend my available time playing with Tech!!…

IOT With Raspberry Pi using JAVA

IOT_Pi

This post features videos that I published to my YouTube channel in the series “IOT with Raspberry Pi “. This basically contains 4 videos around raspberry pi that show how to use Raspberry Pi as an IOT device. It starts from interfacing sensor to publishing the sensor data to cloud server using protocols like REST or MQTT. For the entire project I have used JAVA and on top of that used various libraries for specific tasks like Pi4J, Unirest, Eclipse PAHO etc (Links provided below). If you have watched any of the videos you…
