This simple unedited video depicts the range and ad-hoc networking characteristics worked out so far in the Starscape project, a project attempting to create a series of wireless units consisting of infrared transceivers and an RGB LED for the purposes of an creating an interactive animated nightlight to produce patterns on a ceiling. In this video, the base station (big board w/out LED), is sending packets addressed to a particular receiver, called Puck Zero. These packets instruct Puck Zero to set their LED color to red, green, or blue. When Puck Zero receives this packet, it crafts a new packet of the same command and data (color value), but addressed to Puck One. As you can see in the video, Puck One (next to transmitter, separated by visual obstruction) is cycling between colors, having received them as forwarded messages from Puck Zero. Disabling the base station stops both Puck One and Puck Zero from cycling colors, while disabling Puck Zero also stops Puck One from cycling color. Disabling Puck One has no effect on Puck Zero. This demonstrates IR networking occuring between the base station, Puck One, and Puck Zero. It also demonstrates this line-of-sight networking and work over moderate distances indoors.
