This looks neat.
How does this differ from disaster.radio? More portable?
I ask because I really think these are important projects and I'm not sure which to contribute my time towards.
- punkgeek 7y agoWe're working with those guys and might share the same protocol stack. Discussions underway. The difference is: disaster.radio is targeted as a "just in case emergency radio build on custom hardware, that joins a mesh with other folks who bought the same emergency radio." This is a $30 radio (with built in GPS+radio+CPU+battery+OLED screen) already available from a chinese mfg. Then you put our app on it and have a group navigator you can use with your friends while skiing or hiking, instead of buying a $100 closed source kickstarter (and it will run eight days on a charge)"
