This is from the people who authored the WiFi adhoc mode patch that was included in CyanogenMod, and has been under review forever for AOSP (Google is blocking it). I guess they've moved to working on the application level since Google has blocked wifi-level mesh (aka adhoc mode).
In any case, it looks like an interesting framework for getting mesh-ish messaging. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: AirTube: Android Ad-hoc mesh library Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 11:39:13 +0000 From: Bruno Randolf <[email protected]> CC: [email protected], [email protected] Hello! We have been in contact before concerning Ad-hoc (IBSS) mode on Android and since you have mentioned some interest in mesh networks I thought you might also be interested in our project, which after more than two years of internal work, is just released as open source to the public: AirTube is a networking library for Android and Java, creating a distributed peer-to-peer overlay mesh network with service discovery and asynchronous message-oriented end-to-end connectivity. Its unique implementation of a hybrid application layer mesh routing protocol offers a lot of flexibility in the network topologies it can support and the integration of service discovery and asynchronous messaging makes it very easy to discover and connect to "services", be it local, remote or anywhere in the global AirTube mesh "cloud". You can read more and get the source code at GitHub: https://github.com/thinktube-kobe/airtube/wiki And also check our web page: http://www.thinktube.com/products/airtube If this is not at all interesting for you - sorry for bothering, this will be the last time. Otherwise we hope it may be useful to you and would be happy to receive your feedback...
