Hi Thijs,

Sorry, I figured out this repo follows the policy of its upstream repo I forked according to Github, but it was set to private now.

I just download and share it here. Please pay attention that this was made three years ago and not be maintained or provide any support anymore.

You can read the readme file to learn the concept and transfer it to the recent NCS version you are going to use.

Hi Charlie,

Thanks for your reply! Could it be that the Github repo is not public? I get a 404 when i try to access it.

Hi Thijs,

I checked your product page and saw your prototype here IoTidea – IoT solutions, prototyping and consultancy.

It is very similar to one demo I designed a long time ago charlieshao5189/nrf91-lte-image-transfer-demo (github.com) which uses MQTT for image transfer. I think nRF9160 is definitely a good choice for your product due to its ultra-low power consumption. With your solar panel+2450 mAH battery power supply, you basically do not need to worry about power consumption too much. I think your current design will just work.

Of course, a real product design will need to take many terms into consideration based on your application requirements, and your requirements may also change later, so I can only provide some general advice. I suggest you read nWP044 - Best practices for cellular IoT development and play with our samples to get familiar with Nordic cellular IoT solutions. I believe it will help a lot when you develop your application.

Best regards,

Charlie
