Moving My Sensor Network onto Manifold

Thu Sep 17 10:08:00 2026

I moved my working LoRaWAN sensor network onto the new Manifold framework and pointed Home Assistant at it as the interface. The port went smoothly until the OAuth protection on the mesh blocked the inbound webhooks Helium uses to deliver readings. The fix was to let a mesh owner scope access channel by channel, and the pico engine now supports it.

Manifold API and Sensor Network: Two New Repos

Tue Jun 9 09:14:00 2026

Cleaning up manifold-api as a prerequisite for the spring conversational interface Capstone turned into a complete platform update: Pico Engine 1.0 compatibility, automated bootstrap, centralized notifications, and a Docker-based integration test harness. Once the platform was solid, the old temperature-network had an obvious new home inside Manifold's community framework, so I rewrote it too as an example of how Manifold can be a framework for pico networks.

Monitoring Temperatures in a Remote Pump House Using LoraWAN

Tue Mar 21 14:54:00 2023

If you've got a sensor that isn't within range of wifi, then LoraWAN is a good solution. And event-based rules in picos are a convenient way to process the data.

Easier IoT Deployments with LoraWan and Helium

Tue Apr 12 11:00:00 2022

Connectivity requirements add lots of friction to large-scale IoT deployments. LoRaWAN, and the Helium network, just might be a good, universal solution.
