Communicating with Edge Devices across Long Distances Using LoRa

Long Range (LoRa) is a wireless protocol that you can use to receive and send data over long distances using low-powered devices. You can use these edge devices with solar panels or other sources of energy. Sometimes, your edge devices use batteries and are not connected to a common power source like we often find in our houses. When you are crafting edge systems, you could use edge devices using sensors that you have to configure. You could use prototype hardware platforms such as Arduino or devices such as ESP32 microcontrollers or a Raspberry Pi. These devices support LoRa modules to bring communication capabilities to your device, which is crucial for sending and receiving ...
