Seems like this would support institutional/campus environments or changing environments where the sensors at the edge are sending higher bandwidth ultimately back to an Internet node using LoRA mesh--instead of directional WiFi?

I'm trying to envision the application of a mesh like this. These could be examples?

- interconnected nodes need to share data (like images)

- interconnected nodes are acting as a collective array of sensors (eg. geolocation)

- interconnected mesh nodes provide redundant pathways back to the central node

- interconnected mesh nodes provide spatial diversity in case of interference or jamming

- nodes are mobile (eg. drone or vehicle) and mesh provides alternative connectivity based on node location and RF attenuation (also provides longer range with mesh connectivity)

I’m guessing it’s just haloW without the licensing requirements.
