Building an Arduino or Raspberry Pi project which needs to send data back-and-forth? Wi-Fi would work fine for that. But what if you need to transmit data over a long-range, yet do not wish to invest in a Wi-Fi setup of routers, access points and network security programs? Introducing LoRa and LoRaWAN, which enable secure, low-cost radio communication over massive distances of up to 20km!

The box contains an Arduino Mega that interfaces with an RFID reader to enable the current owner to scan in, plus a GPS module for location data. Additionally, an LDR sensor can be incorporated to set the brightness of an LED matrix on the outside. Data passed along to a Raspberry Pi for time of possession tracking via LoRa with The Things Network. This also runs a server that shows game info to others playing, meaning that you’ll have to be very careful to keep it around! Code for the project is available on GitHub.

Capture The Box is a teambuilding game you can play with friends in your neighbourhood. The goal is to capture the box and keep it in your possession for as long as possible whilst other players try to go and sneak it away from your porch or front garden. This game uses GPS to locate the box and RFID tags to identify the players. An optional LDR can be added to match the intensity of the dot matrix display with the percentage of light in the area. Supplies:Microcontrollers and computers
