Problem
Robotic and unmanned systems operating in defense, public safety, and industrial settings often lose communication when operating beyond line‑of‑sight, in dense urban or contested environments, or over long distances, limiting real‑time control, telemetry, and situational awareness.
Solution
Doodle Labs delivers the Mesh Rider platform—a family of multi‑band, high‑throughput radios and a full‑stack Mesh Rider OS that creates self‑forming, self‑healing mobile ad‑hoc networks. The radios support up to 80 Mbps data rates and can stream video over links exceeding 50 km, while built‑in anti‑jamming and resilient mesh algorithms maintain connectivity in contested RF environments. Mesh Rider OS provides a configurable waveform, deep API access, and Layer‑2 MAC routing, enabling seamless integration into drones, ground vehicles, wearables, and fixed assets without manual network planning. The system scales automatically as nodes are added, extending range and reliability across air, ground, and sea platforms. Continuous firmware updates add new resiliency features, ensuring the network adapts to evolving mission requirements.
Target Audience
Primary customers are defense and security organizations, unmanned‑system manufacturers, and industrial operators (e.g., mining, utilities, first‑response) that require reliable, high‑speed communications for fleets of autonomous or remotely‑controlled assets.
