Project Description:
********************
In today’s episode, you will learn how to make Raspberry Pi Pico W LoRa Gateway using a pair of Raspberry Pi Pico boards, a pair of SX1278 LoRa Transceiver modules, a Potentiometer, MQ-9 Gas Sensor, I2C supported 16x2 LCD, and Ubidots IoT platform.

If you already know about LoRa transceiver modules, Raspberry Pi Pico or Raspberry Pi Pico W, and Ubidots IoT platform then you can continue watching this video. You won’t face any issues in building this project. But if you are at a beginner’s level then you should go one step at a time; if you want to learn everything quickly. Because, if you follow this video without the basic knowledge you may get frustrated and this is something that you will never want. You don’t have to be worried, I have done it for you. You only need to follow the steps which I am about to explain.

1. As a beginner, the very first thing that you need to start with is the Arduino IDE and Raspberry Pi Pico or Raspberry Pi Pico W. You should know how to install the Raspberry Pi Pico board in the Arduino IDE using the Board Manger URL link. And you should also know how to install the required libraries. I have a video on this, in which I have explained how to install the Raspberry Pi Pico W board in the Arduino IDE and how to use it with the Adafruit Io. I have added a link in the description.
2. As a beginner you should also know how to connect your Raspberry Pi Pico W board with different IoT platforms for monitoring different types of sensors and for controlling different types of electrical devices. So far I have covered Adafruit Io, Ubidots, and Thingspeak with the Raspberry Pi Pico W. As in today’s tutorial, I am using the Ubidots IoT platform, so you should watch my tutorial on the Ubidots and Raspberry Pi Pico W.
3. In my previous getting started tutorial on the Raspberry Pi Pico W and LoRa; I practically demonstrated how to send data from a normal Raspberry Pi Pico to Raspberry Pi Pico W using LoRa SX1278 Transceiver modules. So, if you are just getting started with the Lora and Raspberry Pi Pico; it doesn’t matter if you are using a pair of normal Raspberry Pi Pico or a pair of Raspberry Pi Pico W then I highly recommend watch my getting started video because today’s video is ...

Hi, i have a question, why do u use Raspeberry for the gateway? I´ve watched many videos in internet about the "Gateway" and all of them use rasp or Dragino technology... is it for something special? i was thinking about using ESP32 maybe, but idk

Hello, I'm still a beginner. But I can't understand why the LoRa transmitters are needed. Can't the Pico W communicate directly with another Pico W, for example via integrated Bluetooth?

[MatGagnon]

Super informative and great communication. As constructive feedback, I could do without the music (or less sleepy music) and the animations are a bit much.
