Project description
More resilient and reliable mesh network technology for demanding scenarios
Mesh networks are used in homes and on the battlefield, providing coverage by using multiple devices or radio nodes acting as routers or repeaters for other nodes without the need for large towers and antennas. In this way, each node need only transmit as far as the next node, eliminating the need for line of sight between source and final destination. The Finnish SME Refecor Oy has developed its R-Mesh radio technology which offers greater resilience and reliability for harsh applications, and public safety and security. The EU-funded R-Mesh radio project will help the team optimise the technology and prepare the business plan to scale up and reach larger European and international customers.
Objective
Refecor Oy has been developing new R-Mesh radio technology that brings more resilience and reliability to critical radio communications for harsh industrial applications (mines, tunnels, logistics in harsh environments) and for public safety and security (emergency units, communications between ambulances and hospitals, fire cars and public safety, police operations...). Our plan is to get funding to boost up our capability to enter into international markets and co-operation in EU area. We have good track record and a number of customers in smaller scale, but with EU support we can grow our business fast and create new product platform for commercial and public safety markets. Refecor has excellent engineering skills (ex-Nokia) and experience of building products (over 20years) and with this new radio technology we have a chance to offer disruptive solutions for many new customers. We want to grow fast and take our place in the global market.
