MeshBox Biweekly Report (2022.01.22–2022.02.04)

MeshBox’s CEO Peter, together with Soh Har, VP of its ecosystem partner SmartMesh held an online meeting with a pan-Asian bank that promotes inclusiveness in the Asia-Pacific region.  MeshBox shared its wireless communication capabilities and proposed deploying mesh networks with MeshBox hardware to mitigate future severe weather-induced disasters and provide disaster recovery infrastructure.

During the recent Tonga earthquake and subsequent tsunami, Tonga’s communications infrastructure was damaged. For up to a week after the disaster, during the time when communication is critical, the only communications facilities available were expensive satellite phones.  MeshBox’s decentralized network deployment can offer great value in such situation, providing an infrastructure to enable quick disaster recovery and preservation of critical data through decentralized edge storage.  This is an improvement over traditional infrastructures in which data is predominately accessed from Data centers via an internet, which may not be reacheable.  In addition, the social network being developed by its ecosystem partner MetaLife will enhance the MeshBox mesh network, supporting continuous communication even with intermittent or non-existent Internet.  This will be highly effective for island nations in the Pacific and other regions in the world.

Software Development

  1. Creation of PoM proto project;
  2. Creation of PoM side chain MeshBox project;
  3. Analyzed access layer protocol of LoRaWAN and interfaces related to interaction with the NS server.
  4. Communicated with third-party hardware manufacturers for the development of firmware, and configured the development environment of IPQ6018 OpenWrt19.07.7.

Hardware Development

  1. Analysis of system architecture of bottom-up networking system;
  2. Analysis of interface part for LoRaWAN industry system;

Analyzed usage and transaction fees of competing IoT tokens.

  1. This week, Henry MeshBox Advisor was invited to participate in the “2022 and Future Metaverse Industry Forecast” Webinar held at the EqualOcean headquarters in New York. Henry shared his views on Web 3.0 and the Metaverse.

Henry is one of the first to define Web3.0 in the history of Internet back in 2003 when Web2.0 was just proposed. After continuous evolution by Tim Berners-Lee, father of WWW, Gavin Wood and SmartMesh, Web3 has finally become a protocol stack that can transfer value peer-to-peer, protect privacy, return data and value ownership back to creators and users, and connect everything online and offline. In the SmartMesh vision of the Web3 metaverse, there is no centralized server which could lead to data privacy leaks. Henry, one of the first proposers of Web3.0, and EOS founder Dan Larimer, the first proposer of DAO, are currently co-advising MetaLife, the decentralized social network.  For the first time such a decentralized Web3 concept will be available to run on everyone’s mobile device. In the future, with XR glasses or In-brain-computer interface, MetaLife is the entrance to an open metaverse that protects your data, value and privacy.

Leveraging on broadband, MeshBox-based HyperMesh infrastructure will bring the other half of the world, with no access to internet, into the metaverse.  Additionally, HyperMesh will also support an ultra-low power, short-range, narrow-bandwidth network for all Internet of Things, creating a set of IoT equipment and systems for digital mapping of the physical environment for the metaverse.  The metaverse needs to seamlessly map the entire environment and activities of the real world to the metaverse in real time, which is very expensive or impossible for traditional networks to achieve.  MeshBox’s PoM and DAO can build IoT networks from the countryside to the city from the bottom up, and map such trusted space-time tagged information to the metaverse for at low cost.
