🚀 SpaceDucks IV: Advancing Off-Grid Connectivity! In spring 2024, OWL Integrations teamed up with the ClusterDuck Protocol (CDP) community and the brilliant team at California Polytechnic State University-San Luis Obispo to pull off SpaceDucks IV — our fourth year pushing the limits of low-orbit LoRa radio communications using weather balloons. 🛰️🎈 OWL is on a mission to build a resilient future. This year, we took a few steps closer to orbital space networking. In six test launches over two days we: 1. Integrated software-defined radios (SDR) improving the flexibility of high altitude communications 2. Developed a plugin for the Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK) - AQUACK, as we like to call it 😎 - for real-time, off-grid communication 3. Collected 7,991 data packets (not that we were counting 😉) Check out the full SpaceDucks IV 2024 Report for all the data, experiments, and lessons learned along the way: https://lnkd.in/ejqWXnFh With every launch, OWL evolves its resilient networking technology, whether it's for disaster recovery, location tracking, environmental monitoring, or space connectivity. 🦆🌌 #lora #iot #sensors #spacecommunications #opensource #cdp #spaceduck #owl #clusterduckprotocol #wirelessnetworks #atak #connectivity
