Add LoRa support to the Elf #20

Open stfu-donny opened 6 years ago

The issue

LoRa is quickly becoming the de-facto communication standard for IoT devices. Because it allows for communication over greater distances and uses less power than WiFi, it would be a very good feature for the Elf to possess. This is especially true if you wanted the Elf running in a remote location with limited power capabilities.

Main Goals

Establish a test point-to-point LoRa connection
Build a gateway device
Send collected data to the gateway
Have the gateway registered on TTN
