We’re building a universal sensor system for district heating. And because it’s universal, there is not a single microcontroller that does it all.  We ended up using RIOT and, if you’re curious about what works and what doesn’t, this talk is for you. Join us on our journey developing the OpenSensSystem!

This talk provides feedback to the RIOT developers from the perspective of people prototyping and building a real product with RIOT. We’ll focus on low-power devices, support for different microcontrollers, drivers, LoRaWAN (the biggest challenge we encountered with RIOT), and other obstacles we stumbled upon.
