HackTheBase IoT Garage (Webinar)

NOTE: This is an online event for the second part of the HackTheBase IoT Garage that we organize this Saturday in our Vancouver office.

The HackTheBase IoT Garage is a regular event for the Internet of Things and Open Hardware developers. Take your project and present and discuss it with the members that can give you valuable feedback. You can play with the various microcontrollers and sensors from our IoT Hub Lab and work on prototyping and inventing of the next big thing.

Let’s build a system to monitor the environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity in a room. We will build a LoRa sensor node with DHT/BME280 sensor connected to The Things Network. To see graphs in Grafana, we will build a Node.js application reading data from MQTT and storing them in the time series database InfluxDB.

This time we will do a webinar for the part how to build an environmental monitoring with the The Things Network, Node.js, InfluxDB, and Grafana. It starts at 1:00 PM PST.

We will use Docker to run the Node.js application for forwarding data from The Things Network to InfluxDB. As Docker instances, we will run the InfluxDB and Grafana so you will be able to run the entire environment on your machine.

The number of seats in the Vancouver office is limited, but the webinar will be available online for everyone who will register to the event. If you will register for the online event, we will send you a link to the Webex.

2. IoT Hub Lab

Creative space dedicated to prototyping, using all sorts of microcontrollers (Adafruit Feather, Particle Boron, ESP8266, ESP32 and more) with various types of connectivity (WiFi, LoRaWAN, GSM, LTE-M), and tools such as a screwdriver, voltmeter and more.
