Remember when I said helium was referring to people powered routers, because they're gonna use people as walking wireless routers?
That network, they set up runs through the human body like in this patent.
THIS IS IMPORTANT
Here's how the Helium network works.
Helium
The world's first peer to peer wireless network.

Documentation
The Helium Network powers two distinct wireless networks; a global LoRaWAN™ network for IoT devices & a cellular offload Wi-Fi network for mobile connectivity.
Wireless gateways called "Hotspots", operated by the Helium community, provide the coverage for these networks.
Hotspot owners are incentivized with the Helium HNT token for providing coverage and handling wireless traffic.

TOOLS
1) Helium Router
Helium's LoRa Network Server (LNS) backend.
Router combines a LoRaWAN Network Server with an API for console & provides a proxy to the Helium blockchain

2) Virtual Lorawan Device
This where they EMULATE, SIMULATE & VIRTUALIZE Hardware !!!!!
A utility that attaches to a Semtech UDP Host and pretends to be a LoRaWAN Device.

3) Helium Data
Utilities for Processing Helium Data
github.com/helium/helium-dat…
The Helium Foundation will soon publish all oracle S3 data files in the Delta Lake and Parquet format. Delta Lake, Parquet & Spark are modern standards for accessing and querying massive data tables.
Delta Lake is easy to use after you've installed the right tools. With Spark, Jupyter and Delta Lake you can efficiently query Helium network data using standard SQL commands.

4) Semtech UDP
Semtech UDP provides serialization and deserialization of packets complying with the Semtech GWMP over UDP protocol.

5) Helium Gateway
The Helium Gateway application is a service designed to run on Linux-based LoRaWAN gateways.
It's intended to run alongside a typical LoRa packet forwarder and to connect via Semtech's Gateway Messaging Protocol (GWMP, using JSON v1 or v2).

6) Onboarding Server
The onboarding server allows makers to manage their hotspot production and permit hotspot customers to onboard them to the blockchain.

7) POC Data Node Lambda Stack
Lambda stack for Helium Foundation PoC Data environment
github.com/helium/poc-data-n…
8) Helium Packet Router
Other configuration parameters handled through environment variables can be set or handled through the environment facility in systemd unit files.

9) Devops Flow
Helium foundation k8s defs
The Helium k8s infrastructure is provisioned by terraform from helium/helium-foundation-terraform

10) Routing
This document describes the routing mechanism implemented post HIP 70.
Configuration
All of the device routing information is contained in the Config Service (CS).
The CS can be interacted via CLI or directly using the Proto APIs.

11) Helium Program Library
This is where the "Sol" token gets tethered in!!!!!
Helium programs to run on the Solana blockchain.
A collection of solana programs used for Helium's Solana integration.
