Welcome to the final episode of our Meshtastic Designer series! Over the past few episodes, we’ve explored why small farmers need data, how to tackle farm connectivity challenges, and how to build scalable IoT networks. Now, we’re wrapping it up by going beyond prototypes and into the world of industrial-grade IoT solutions. In this episode, Prateek from EMpact and Ken Yu, CEO of RAKwireless, share how passionate innovators can turn their IoT ideas into real, deployable devices without needing to be hardware engineers. From the inspiration behind Meshtastic Designer to the importance of firmware, software integration, and scalable manufacturing, we’ll show you how IoT projects can go from a simple idea to a fully manufactured, production-ready solution. ✨ What You’ll Discover in This Episode: • The IKEA-inspired tool helping users select the right IoT hardware • Why IoT projects need more than just hardware (think firmware, software, and manufacturing) • How RAKwireless’ vision connects the entire IoT creation process—from design to deployment • How innovators like Prateek are building real-world, scalable solutions with IoT Timestamp: 00:00 - Why most IoT projects fail 00:24 - The IKEA of IoT hardware (Meshtastic Designer) 00:01:16 - The Need for More than Just Hardware Selection 03:50 - From prototype to production: Full workflow demo 06:12 - Firmware hacks for scaling 08:14 - Your invite: Join the "IoT Made Easy" mission 🎥 Whether you’re a tech tinkerer, an entrepreneur, or a developer curious about industrial IoT, this episode will inspire you to turn ideas into action! 📺 Missed the earlier episodes?
