Decentralized robots (and things) orchestration system

In plain words

Decentralized robots (and things) orchestration system is an open-source operating system extension for coordinating robot swarms without central control. It creates a wireless mesh network using B.A.T.M.A.N.-adv and provides peer-to-peer communication through SDKs in Rust, Python, and TypeScript, plus a CLI. The system abstracts away networking complexity, offering orchestration primitives like key-value storage, pub-sub messaging, and discovery. It is designed for developers building decentralized multi-robot applications or experimenting with connected devices like Raspberry Pis.

From the sources

Get started using the data functionality in your inter-robot network.

In the terminal, install hyved onto your Raspberry Pi, robot, drone, etc. During setup , have an ethernet cable plugged into the device over which you ssh into the device and the WiFi chip on the device. We tested the script on Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS and Raspberry Pi 5. Different devices and somewhat recent Debian derivatives should work as well. bash <( curl -ssL https://install.p2p.industries ) Configuration The install script will make changes to the network configuration of your node device. Jump to the installation manual to understand the changes. For a clean experience, go to the best configuration during setup . Install the hyveOS SDK suite of your choosing once to start…from docs.p2p.industries

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi HN, we build an open-source operating system extension for orchestrating robot swarms fully decentralized. This first beta version allows you to create fully decentralized robot swarms. The system will set up a wireless mesh network and run a p2p networking stack on top of it, such that nodes can interact with…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Tetris in a PDF▲1,289

  I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…

  I originally built this app to organize and reuse interesting React + Tailwind components I came across on Twitter, inspired by the shadcn/ui approach. Later, a friend started contributing their own components, and it got me thinking—this could grow into something bigger, like an NPM for design engineers to share and use components. Would love to hear your thoughts!
