DESCRIPTION:The long range and low-power capability of LoRaWANTM combined w
 ith the flexibility and ease of use of The Thing Network’s open source d
 ata network makes this one of the easiest ways for an embedded engineer to
  create an end-to-end IoT solution.\n\nIn this hands-on workshop\, attende
 es will learn how to send sensor data from a low cost\, low-power sensor a
 ll the way to a user application. The class will walk through connecting a
  LoRaWAN-enabled endpoint through a LoRaWAN gateway to The Things Network
 ’s servers and finally to an end user application.\n\nUpon completion\, 
 attendees will be equipped to deploy each piece of this IoT solution.\n\nN
 otes:\n\nAttendees will be provided with a sensor board for use during the
  workshop.\n\nAttendees may purchase the sensor board separately: https://
 www.microchipdirect.com/product/search/all/THW1021\n\nAttendees are expect
 ed to download courseware and install software onto their laptop computers
  before attending the event. Instructions and courseware link will be emai
 led to registrants before the workshop.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dennis Cecic\, P. E
