LoRa Mesh
We are testing LoRa mesh for commercial open-source applications — applications that keep working in parallel when the internet or the power grid fails, and in places that have neither.
For groups and communities that want to shrink their metadata footprint, a clear game-changer.
What we are testing right now
Stationary Chrome PWAs with Bluetooth LE that reconcile their data with mobile devices — peer to peer, over CRDTs (e.g. OrbitDB, Yjs), with no servers, no accounts and no passwords.
Where it would be used
- Booking systems with little to no metadata and no tracking, for fitness and yoga studios.
- Booking systems for coworking spaces with several locations.
Conceivable, not built yet
Devices in branches that reconcile their data over WebRTC and over a LoRa mesh — whichever of the two happens to be there.
Work on this with us
We are looking for people to try this with: studios and coworking spaces that would run it, radio amateurs who know the band, and developers who want the open-source side. If that is you, get in touch.
