SILy

Meshed LoRa network for SportIdent SRR Orienteering stations based on Lilygo T3S3

The communication path is:

SI BSF8-SRR --SRR--> SI SRR module --UART--> Lilygo T3S3 node --LoraMesh--> Lilygo T3S3 gateway --WiFi+TCP--> MeOS.

Architecture

SILy nodes can be of 2 types:

• Node: general case. Nodes read punches and send them to the gateway.
• Gateway: only one gateway in the network, receiving punches from nodes and relaying them to MeOS.

Nodes and gateway share the same software.
