Let's kick-start 2017 with some cool IoT hacking!

If you haven't yet thought of a good New Year's resolution (or already broke one) we have a proposal for you: How about learning (by doing) about some cool technologies in area of Internet of Things? Wouldn't it be a fun to play with sensors, microcontrollers and LoRa or WiFi radio modules to make your city or home smarter? Join us!

Next meeting: 11th of January at 7p.m.
Place: [BonnLAB](http://www.projs.de/)

Agenda for next meeting includes:

- workshop on ESP8266 microcontroller - we will show you how to: build WiFi enabled sensors and to start with your own Smart Home solution
- discussion on projects that we plan to build for Bonn based on The Things Network
- project work (e.g. setup of hardware & software of TTN gateways and nodes)
