Hey guys currently, I am designing monitoring environmental sensors for a large geographic area. The sensors will collect data such as temperature, humidity, and air quality. Should I use LoRaWAN or NB-IoT for connectivity, considering factors such as device density, coverage, data rate, power consumption, infrastructure costs, and application requirements? Which one would be more suitable for my project to transmit this sensor data?

Hi, from what I've seen and my discussion with other experts here, seems LoRa is the way to go, imo

Joseph Ogbonna•5/30/24, 2:04 PM

If you're trying to find the right connectivity consider the long term value, cost, Scalability and also power. NB IoT will require a SIM and might need more management strategies. Though it has wider coverage. So consider long term cost.

I will advise to use LoRa if the geolocation is limited within a certain region

nour_oud•5/30/24, 3:00 PM

I’ve read the article. Honestly, I don't recommend LMStudio it's not open source, I think the pure llama.cpp is the easiest and best.

Daniel kaluOP•5/30/24, 4:37 PM

Could you on other specific scenarios where LoRaWAN would be more advantageous? And also how do the long-term costs of these technologies compare in a real-world deployment?

Renuel Roberts•5/30/24, 4:43 PM

Hey guys does anyone have a guide or steps I can use in developing a complete RTOS application for real-time monitoring and control of medical devices

DDaniel kalu Could you on other specific scenarios where LoRaWAN would be more advantageous?...

Joseph Ogbonna•5/30/24, 11:07 PM

There won't be need to data subscription in every device, you just subscribe to the main gateway and all devices within the range now have access to the Internet

techielew•5/30/24, 11:09 PM

Hey y'all, see you tomorrow at Office Hours where @ZacckOsiemo is going to be walking us through his experience with Zephyr and showing a live demo of the RTOS in action.

Joseph Ogbonna•6/3/24, 5:29 PM

The demand on microchip fabrication is evolving drastically as the miniaturization of chip evolving. Currently TSMC it's the is leading manufacturer of microchip, they are able to produce transistor of upto 2nm(nano meter). For now I think this is the smallest we have reached though there some research going on on how to go further.
