ChatterBox: Mesh Node and T-Deck Firmware
ChatterBox is a secure off-grid mesh communication, location sharing, and IOT platform. It does not use apps, internet, or grid services. Learn more by reading from the links here.
What is ChatterBox?
ChatterBox uses LoRa, encryption (asymmetric & symmetric), digital signatures, advanced mesh techniques, and frequency hopping to give you a backup method of communication and location sharing that doesn’t require grid, internet, or cell phones.
How do I Use It?
Remember that ChatterBox is designed as a backup local communication method. If you’re clever, you can get a pretty decent sized coverage area (miles) by positioning a few nodes. However, you’re not going to want to be carrying on several conversations for hours at a time like you might on your phone. Think of it as a cross between email and texting, only much more secure than both and local (no internet or cell service involved, your nodes/communicators are your cell towers)would.
