SenseCAP Indicator for Meshtastic & LoRa

The SenseCAP Indicator for Meshtastic & LoRa is a is a 4′ touchscreen device designed for Meshtastic, powered by dual MCUs, the ESP32 and RP2040, and supports Wi-Fi, BLE, and LoRa. It is an open-source, powerful IoT development platform.

Housed in a compact enclosure, the unit runs open-source firmware and is designed to be fully compatible with the Meshtastic ecosystem. It is suitable for use as a personal communicator, data collector, or IoT status panel in environments without reliable internet access.

As a Meshtastic device, it can build an open-source, off-grid, decentralised, and free LoRa mesh network for reliable long-range, low-power communication with other Meshtastic nodes. Pair it with your phone in three steps to start communicating with nearby nodes via the Meshtastic app, check signals, and share locations without any network infrastructure.

External LoRa® antennas and expansion via Grove connectors are supported. GPS can be added with a Grove GPS module along with the GPS firmware.

A USB-C cable is included for powering the device (5V 1A required).

Features

• Supports Meshtastic: Pre-flashed with Meshtastic firmware, it is ready to work once powered on. You can also upgrade the firmware using Meshtastic Flasher.
• Dual MCUs and Rich GPIOs: Equipped with powerful ESP32S3 and RP2040 dual MCUs and over 400 Grove-compatible GPIOs for flexible expansion options.
• Local LoRa® Hub for IoT Connectivity: Integrated with the Semtech SX1262 LoRa® chip, the device can be converted to a LoRaWAN® Single-Channel Gateway via tutorial. Alternatively, connect LoRa® devices to popular IoT platforms like Matter via Wi-Fi.
• Fully Open Source Platform: Leverage the extensive ESP32 and Raspberry Pi open-source ecosystem for infinite application possibilities.
• Suitable for Multiple Application Scenarios: Can be used as a Meshtastic desktop node or a car node, as well as a LoRaWAN® Single-Channel Gateway.
