IoT Space Hackathon

Get into orbit with Myriota and Fleet Space! We have IoT satellite modems from Myriota and Fleet Space to experiment with.  Come along to connect and learn how to use the latest generation of communications technology for Internet of Things applications. IoT by Satellite avoids the need for land based wireless.  Discover how these systems can enable and advance remote monitoring and control.  If you have interests in agritech, weather, environment, predator trapping, marine monitoring, remote tracking, then satellite connections are a significant enabler.  Become a leading innovator using the latest technologies. http://myriota.com/ https://www.fleet.space/ We also have several Pycom IoT development modules to work with.  There will be plenty of tech to work with. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ax_ysAtZlxAHDBgOLXU3o_D4s96Kd19F/view https://pycom.io/product-category/shop/development-boards/ What you need to bring: Enthusiasm, team work, fun.  yeah, it makes a difference :-) PC/laptop:  install the Pycom atom pymakr environment https://docs.pycom.io/pymakr/installation/atom.html https://atom.io/ Please also sign up to our Slack channel to meet the team https://iotakl.slack.com/ If you are available to assist with the equipment setup please contact John McDermott.  A discount is on offer for helping out!
