What You'll Learn About LoRa with Blues

In this webinar, you'll explore the fundamentals of LoRa technology and discover how it integrates seamlessly with the Blues ecosystem. Our experts break down the differences between LoRa and LoRaWAN, explaining how LoRa serves as the wireless radio technology that enables data sharing between devices, while LoRaWAN acts as the communication protocol governing data transmission across networks and the internet.

Notecard for LoRa offers advantages over traditional cellular and WiFi solutions. The technology delivers exceptional cost-effectiveness, with devices like our Notecard for LoRa priced at just $10. These power-friendly devices are ideal for battery-operated applications, offering impressive range capabilities of up to 5 km in urban environments and 16 km in rural settings. The webinar showcases real-world examples, including a remarkable demonstration of LoRa communication from 80 km away using a balloon-suspended device.

Introducing the Notecard for LoRa

The star of our webinar is the brand new Notecard for LoRa, now available in both US and EU versions to accommodate respective LoRa frequencies. This device fits perfectly into the Blues ecosystem, offering developers a seamless transition between different radio access technologies without significant code changes. The presentation demonstrates how LoRa with Blues maintains the same physical M.2 connector and development APIs across all Notecard variants, whether cellular, WiFi, or LoRa.

Our experts showcase the Blues Starter Kit for LoRa, which includes three Notecard LoRa devices, three Note Carrier B boards, three LiPo batteries, and a pre-provisioned Gateway running on The Things Stack. This comprehensive kit provides everything needed to begin your LoRa development journey.

Real-World Applications and Community Projects

Discover practical implementations of LoRa through community projects spanning environmental monitoring, smart agriculture, and innovative IoT solutions. The webinar includes a tutorial demonstration showing how to set up a Raspberry Pi with both Notecard LoRa and cellular Notecard, creating a robust fallback system that showcases the technology's flexibility.
