RAKwireless Aims at Easier, More Reliable Raspberry Pi Meshtastic Nodes with Its New HAT Add-On
Internet of Things (IoT) specialist RAKwireless has announced a gadget that aims to make it easier to build and deploy Meshtastic LoRa-based mesh radio nodes powered by the Raspberry Pi family of single-board computers: the WisMesh Pi HAT RAK6421.

"The issue is rarely the software. More often, it is the hardware stack holding everything together. A Raspberry Pi Meshtastic node is only as reliable as the way its radio, sensors, and interfaces are connected."
