The session will provide an opportunity to get a full hands-on experience of the Pervasive Nation platform, connect devices to the network, and integrate your own data management system to Pervasive Natio. It will also be an opportunity to get first-hand experience of the latest sensor development platforms being developed by CONNECT researchers. The session on 7 December will include:

  • 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 walk-through of bringing devices onto and off a tenant on the network (e.g., nuim.pervasivenation.com) 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. Session Requirements: Please bring your laptop, ensuring that you have the following:
    • Running Linux/Mac/Windows
