This project, conducted by Juan Cardenas and Paul Borg at Firetide Company, focuses on leveraging high-performance wireless mesh infrastructure for streaming live video from mobile devices to command centers in various transportation contexts, including cars and trains. Using advanced mesh management software, we learned to set up virtual mesh nodes and confirmed connectivity through data pinging. This allowed us to explore the capabilities of wireless nodes for audio and video transmission while addressing challenges such as hardware failures and communication hurdles. Our ongoing work continues to push the boundaries of wireless technology.

Juan Cardenas Paul Borg CST 311 Wireless Mesh Nodes
Firetide Company • Based in Los Gatos, Ca • Leading provider of high-performance wireless infrastructure. • Privately owned company
Purpose of Project • Stream live video from mobile device to command center • Cars • Trains • Public Transportation
What are Wireless Mesh Nodes? • Consist of nodes that have small radio transmitters • Function same way as wireless routers
Description: • Frame size 64-1580 bytes TCP/UDP • Size of available packets to send and receive • Running Tests at different speeds of mobility
Progress • We learned how to use HotView software • Mesh Management Software • Able to set up virtual mesh nodes
Pinging led to: • Streaming of • Audio • Video • Live Video • Tested strength of nodes • Distance
What we learned? We learned how to: • Physically connect two mesh nodes • Set up software in order to run nodes • Transfer data between to nodes • Ping nodes in order to confirm connectivity • Set up local IP addresses, gateways, and default gateways
Obstacles • Spent a lot of time trying to communicate with company • Hardware Failure • Data Loss
Disclaimer • Project is on going, therefore, the amount of progress was limited to time
