LoRa Radio Bonnet - LoRa 433MHz module with OLED display for Raspberry Pi

Description

Module with the RFM95W system for LoRa/LoRaWAN communication and an OLED display, designed for Raspberry Pi minicomputers. It allows you to add wireless connectivity to the RPi, which allows you to transfer data over much greater distances (approx. 2 km) than WiFi or Bluetooth. The system operates at ISM 433 MHz, and there is a u.FL connector on the board that allows you to connect an external antenna. The module is equipped with an OLED display with a resolution of 128x32 px and 3 buttons, thanks to which the user can easily create a simple interface without the need to connect additional elements. The manufacturer offers extensive support in the form of a Python library. Full documentation with examples is available on the product page.
