In plain words

TCP/UDP over sound is a network driver that enables internet communication through audio. It implements the lwIP networking stack using libquiet, allowing devices to transmit data packets as sound waves. This tool is designed for developers and hobbyists interested in experimental networking, emergency communication systems, or creative audio projects. The software runs on GitHub and provides a complete network implementation that converts traditional TCP/UDP protocols into acoustic signals.
