The grid is fragile.

Vitality Communications presents Aegis: A decentralized mesh network built for total infrastructure failure. We use long range radio and AES-256 encryption to keep people connected when towers and satellites are unavailable.

The First 72 Hours.

Major natural disasters prove that the initial event is rarely the only cause of death. The information blackout that follows prevents rescue and stops the coordination of food and water.

"In the 2011 earthquake, there was a complete communication gap. People could only wait. If the communication issue was resolved first, the food and water issues would have been resolved much sooner."
— Ryoma Yamamoto, Master of Communications and Computer Engineering, Kyoto University; Former Apple Pay Japan Lead

Civilian Fragility

Standard communication relies on single towers. When a tower loses power or is physically destroyed, the entire network stops. This is a single point of failure that leaves civilians in the dark for weeks.

Strategic Vulnerability

Centralized networks are primary targets for malicious activity. When a military or government unit relies on a fixed backbone, they share the vulnerabilities of the civilian grid.

Independent Mesh Infrastructure.

Aegis replaces cell towers with a distributed "Mesh." Every node acts as an encrypted relay for the others. If one part of the network fails, the signal simply finds a new path through the mesh.

  • Solar Power: Integrated panels allow for indefinite runtime in the field.
  • Crisis Endurance: Battery modules provide up to six months of power during solar failure.
  • Encrypted Range: Reliable 15km coverage using specialized radio modulation.
  • Zero Setup: Automatically identifies and connects to the existing mesh when turned on.

Per Public Node

98% cheaper than cellular infrastructure.

// TACTICAL RESILIENCE

Electronic Warfare Ready.

In modern conflicts, centralized comms are the first target. Aegis creates a stealthy, self-healing mesh that maintains unit cohesion even when GPS and satellite uplinks are denied.

• Mesh networking for military operations is incredibly important

// V4 FIELD DATA

Proven in the Field.

Our hardware isn't just theoretical. We've pushed the Aegis V4 nodes to their absolute limits in dense urban and forest environments.

MAX RANGE (LOS)

0

Kilometers achieved in line-of-sight testing.

BATTERY LIFE

0

Months of standby power without solar input.

LATENCY

0

Milliseconds average hop time between nodes.

Deployment Scenarios

Strategic Operations

A secure, encrypted fallback for units operating in environments where traditional communication backbones are compromised.

Local Government

Pre-deploying encrypted nodes on lamp posts creates a permanent emergency channel for citizens.

Search & Rescue

Teams drop repeaters as they move to extend the mesh into deep wilderness or urban dead zones.

NGO / Aid

Rapidly deploying comms in refugee camps or post-conflict zones where infrastructure has been destroyed.

If this type of infrastructure-free networking is developed in a stable way, millions of lives could be saved... I really [want] this to be real.
