Firstly, this is an awesome project, congratulations! (You'd be surprised, this is even a problem in parts of the US once you leave the metro areas.)
I was curious about a couple of things:
- You list some sophisticated machinery -- did you run into permit/regulatory challenges around running all this?
- Did you get challenged by incumbents, even if they weren't providing service in your specific locale?
- mildlyclassic 6y agoOP here. Thanks for the questions! We are a licensed ISP so we've got the regulatory aspect covered pretty well. The best part of our laser system is that it uses so called 'free space' which doesn't require government approval. We're confident in our superior technology and lower costs when competing with telcos and ISPs.
- sgt 6y agoThe laser system made me wonder. How does it handle fog and mist, and what would happen if a flock of birds would fly past?
