UCC Pervasive Nation User Group

On 8 June a Pervasive Nation User Group workshop will take place at University College Cork. The session will provide an opportunity to get a full hands-on experience of the Pervasive Nation platform, connecting devices to the network, integrating data management systems, as well as getting first-hand experience of the latest sensor development platforms that some CONNECT researchers have been working on over the past few months.

Morning session (9.30am – 1.00pm)

• Intro on Lora/LoRaWAN and the latest updates from the LoRa Alliance (the non-profit body driving the development and standardisation of the LoRaWAN protocol).
• An overview of the Pervasive Nation platform and how it is deployed, including the Pervasive Nation roadmap and the latest features.
• Hands-on walkthrough of bringing devices on and off a tenant on the network (e.g., ucc.pervasivenation.ie) and the various ways of accessing data.
• Hands on session – hardware and software with a full LoRa/LoRaWAN sensor development environment based around the Pervasive Nation reference design.
