The RAK3172 WisDuo module with the default RAK firmware is usually used as a LoRaWAN modem together with the host MCU in most IoT applications. You can have a successful end-device when the host MCU sends even just the basic EUIs/keys commands and joining/sending commands.
The WisBlock IoT hardware platform just keeps growing and growing. This RAK Autumn Launch event, we are introducing more WisBlock Modules which includes a new WisBlock Core based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040 chip and a new WisBlock Base board that is smaller and low power.
If you are into cryptocurrency or decentralized applications, this WisBlock project is for you. This project shows the latest cryptocurrency value of three popular crypto coins. It tracks three cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin(BTC), Ethereum(ETH) and Helium(HNT).
After launching the RAK3172 WisDuo Module, we received lots of interest in using it as a dedicated LoRa® device or LoRaWAN® end-device.
One of the critical hardware components in the LoRaWAN IoT Architecture is the LoRaWAN gateway. It collects the data from LoRaWAN devices and forwards it to the LoRaWAN network server.
