Hi,
I have seen that you are working on a Meshtastic firmware for Smartcitizen. But I was wondering, what hardware will you use? As far as I can see V2.3 is based on SAMD21 microcontroller which is not supported by Meshtastic.
Thank you!
Thanks for the message! Yes, we are working on the meshtastic firmware, but we are going to move away from current hardware options. Ideally, we will use the ESP32-S3 for WiFi devices, together with the SZ1262 for LoRa. There may be some cases where WiFi is not needed and that we make (or co-make) a board with a NRF chip, with bluetooth only to save power.
In case you are interested, this is where we are working on: GitHub - fablabbcn/smartcitizen-meshtastic: This repository contains (a fork of) the official firmware for Meshtastic, an open-source, off-grid mesh communication system.
