See all- Community Invited To Learn About Off-Grid Communication With Meshtastic at Los ANeeds location
In light of frequent communication outages in Los Alamos County, residents are invited to Los Alamos Makers on Monday, September 15, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m to explore Meshtastic, an innovative off-grid communication and location-sharing system.
Meshtastic uses small, low-power radios to create a resilient “mesh network” that allows people to send text messages and share GPS locations without relying on cell towers, Wi-Fi, or the internet. This makes it a valuable tool for staying connected with family members during emergencies, outages, and outdoor adventures in areas without reliable cell coverage.
Attendees will learn how Meshtastic works, see live demonstrations, and get hands-on experience setting up and using devices. Devices will also be available for purchase at the event, giving participants the chance to walk away ready to connect immediately.
The workshop will cover:
- How mesh networks maintain communication during outages
- Set up a Meshtastic node in your home or business
- Share real-time location
- Private communication with family and friends
- Practical uses for hiking, emergency response, and community resilience
