The event badge that's also a node. A credential that taps like an NFC pass and talks on a private mesh — so production and staff stay coordinated when the cell network is slammed.
Tens of thousands of phones hit the same towers at once, and the people running the show — production, security, medical, operations — lose the one thing they need most: a reliable way to reach each other. Radios help, but they don't tell you where someone is, and they're one more thing to hand out, track, and collect.
The credential a staffer already wears becomes the device. Built around the same pre-configured LoRa mesh approach behind our radios — no app to learn, no pairing, no cell signal required.
An NFC chip for check-in, access, and identity — the badge functions the moment it's issued.
A LoRa radio and GPS inside, pre-joined to the event's private channel, so every credential is a node on the same map.
Text and location move across the mesh independent of the cell network — so ops can see and reach the team.
We're starting where the need is sharpest and the group is defined: the people working the event, not the crowd.
If you run events or production and this is a problem you know well, we'd like to hear how you'd use it.
