Genre: eLearning | MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz
Language: English | Size: 6.78 GB | Duration: 7h 59mTake the next step in your LoRaWAN career. Connect your first LoRaWAN device, and start creating IoT solutions.
What you'll learn
Running a LoRaWAN Gateway on a Raspberry Pi
Connecting LoRaWAN devices
Managing LoRaWAN IoT data in a dashboard
Solving a real world problem using IoT
Description
Start your professional LoRaWAN® career now with The Things Academy (Hardware required)
Get ready for 5 days of intense learning, hands-on workshops, and building real use cases using LoRaWAN technology. During the 1-week pressure cooker, you will gain theoretical knowledge of the LoRa® technology and LoRaWAN standard, and you will learn how to put the theory in practice through joining hands-on workshops.
Instructors include IoT experts who have seen IoT projects containing hundreds of thousands of sensors succeed and fail. All instructors are committed to provide you with the insights we've learned over the course of the past year, preventing you from making the same mistakes.
For whom: The Things Summer Academy is a week-long summer school, designed for ambitious people who are planning to kickstart their career in IoT. No knowledge of LoRaWAN is required, basic understanding of (web) development and/or basic electronics is preferable.
What we ask from participants: We ask participants to be dedicated for the full week. To listen to the theory presented by the experts, and to join in with the hands-on workshops. Access to a hardware kit is required (see bottom, and see the final lecture for a PDF with links)
What you will learn?
Theory about the fundamentals of LoRa and LoRaWAN
Understanding the principles of wireless communication
How to securely connect a LoRaWAN device to any LoRaWAN Network Server
Sending uplinks and downlinks
Basics about LoRaWAN security
How to set up a gateway using LoRa Basics Station
The inner-workings of The Things Stack (the technology used by The Things Network)
Integrating sensor data with third part platforms through MQTT and HTTP Webhooks
Storing, visualizing and processing sensor data in IoT platforms
Why join this course?
High-quality content, created by a team of LoRaWAN experts
Hands-on workshops with live Q&A
Personal mentor to support your throughout the week
Become part of a peer-group for discussing, interacting and reviewing one another's work
Access to discounted hardware and software
Official Certificate upon completion (add-on for €99)
Invitation to The Things Alumni Network
On-demand content after the summer course
