Locally hosted = you are your own internet server. You get to create & control what is on that server, and you can share that server with people through multiple different decentralized methods. I’ve found the best way to figure out how to do things in this sphere is to figure out what you want to do, then find the tool that lets you do it. Then work it backwards from there. Wanna track airplanes? They beacon a frequency that reports their location. That frequency is 1090Mhz. You can use the SDR USB to collect those beacons, and then use software to decode those beacons and have that software display the information in a Graphical User Interface, such as a map. Once you deduce that, you can scour the videos & literature (such as the stuff I do) to see if other people shared that same interest, and if they were successful in their pursuits to achieve whatever goal they set out to achieve. If so, likely they shared their journey with that, and you can replicate that until you have enough familiarity to come up with your own original solution to perhaps a unique problem you’ve identified. Of course, that is how you landed here. Trust in the algorithm. It knows where you want to be and you cannot escape the path it has chosen for you. Follow the instagram. I’m way more active over there. @gridbasedotnet

I actually had this same idea years ago. Main thing you need is a Faraday cage to prevent solar flares from destroying your computer, which is a highly likely doomsday scenario.
I too thought about this but if there was a solar flare big enough to knock down most of civilization my raspberry pi ain't surviving no matter how big the cage
I made a very simple cyberdeck back in 2015-ish, using a pelican case/Beagle Bone Black/Adafruit screen/Bluetooth Keyboard/Phone charger battery (i'm sure i wasn't the first either), but what everyone else is making is so much cooler and useful. SDR? Super cool. This is like a complete product. Reminds me of those cool military laptops with tough cases

So thought a bit more about this "invention". 1. Kindle $99 ( all the books I could ever want to read in my lifetime) If you don't know you can use a free program called Calibre to convert any book format and put on your kindle. 2. generic solar panel with USB $30 to charge the kindle and the SDR 3. SDR $199 4. Garmin GPS $199 5. waterproof case $40 Not having all of your eggs in one basket PRICELESS!
That is an excellent alternative! Not capable of doing everything the base station can do by any means. But, for strictly the IIAB function, it would do the trick. The base station features the ability to manage a plethora of digital mode communication programs over HF. In addition to that, it is a turn key solution with customer support that less tech savy folks appreciate. The best part about the free market is that we are all able to make choices about what best suites our needs, and I support the hell out of that!
Honestly if you made a bunch of these id totally buy one, Im nowhere near smart enough to build one of these myself. I also just think its really cool looking.
The problem were solving is this; Information has not been decentralized to this end. We are reliant upon network servers and private infrastructure owned by large mega corporations. Gridbase seeks to empower folks by giving them an internet style experience without needing that proprietary infrastructure. Among other things, that is the core principal. Please see the FAQ page on the website for more info, www.gridbase.net.
@@jeffbrownstain The Ship Repairman Story... The man sent a bill that read: Tapping with a hammer………………….. $ 2.00 Knowing where to tap…………………….. $ 9,998.00
Fun Fact: Jay Leno actually already addressed this in the early 2000s. Additionally, it was named that by the indigenous natives who lived here. They basically put the whites who were moving here into an area of their own so that they didn't interfere with the native tribes who wanted to be unbothered by them. Thanks for the kudos!
Bought the gridbase and being my fault damaged the 7 in display. Without hesitation Jason said send it in and he would replace it. That is customer service.
If you're poor like me, this could be duplicated with an old phone, 512GB USB thumb drive with a ton of info saved on it, all inside a metal ammo can as a makeshift faraday cage. There are places to find zip files with collections of information.
There’s many ways to track and share info. ATAK isn’t the best one of them from a civilian stand point. That’s why we focus on YAAC, APRS, 2 meter digital mode programs and others.
Magnetic cellar automata circuit with electro wetted display could go all year long on that battery, as while not classically fast enough to be justified commercially, it is like 1 million lower energy decades ago, and is now talking about 4 tera Hertz. However, the classic type of the MCA type circuit, can be manufactured at home. So, excellent for a survival prepper tablet which could fit in a normal laptop style case with many terabyte MCA storage space. There are cheaper manufacturing options coming out now, so a full development could be had with some crowd funding. I'm not in a health position to do so, but some completion helps and rebuilding civilisation after the catastrophe cycles, sounds good to me.
Stephen, the reason for the email was to clarify on which model you wanted pricing. There is a $600 model, a $,400 model, and there is a $300 kit that is being launched as we speak. This project is very much in active development, with an ever ranging effort to drive down costs and options being provided to potential customers. As such, establishing a relationships with potential customers and nailing down exactly what their needs are is paramount to ensuring expectations are met from the very beginning. I hope this answer provides you with some clarity.
How are you off grid with a gps beacon? I can find you with that. Also who’s maintaining these satellites if the internet is down? They can’t reposition and they’ll be destroyed. That’s why you have the cyber deck in the first place.
The gps is a piece of hardware you can optionally connect if you choose to do so. As a company, we’re only taking advantage of the existing satellite infrastructure. Not managing our own. So, if infrastructure collapsed, you wouldn’t be able to precisely geolocate yourself. However, you’d still have access to pre-downloaded map repositories, so you could treat it like a regular map and orient yourself using terrain features and a compass.
@@gridbasedotnet what you want in there is LoRa Mesh transceiver or a full SDR transceiver. With a decent SDR you can pickup and decode GPS as well as lots of other messages. What you have there is a oversized cellphone. You could just keep a cell phone handy and have the same thing. Jailbreak an iPhone and install Kwix
Actively Working on LoRa. And, the Cyberdeck ships with SDR equipment/antennas for the purpose you’re referencing. The name of the game is contingency. GPS is only one way that cyberdeck can skin the cat, if the user chooses to skin it that way.
Look into Endless OS, it's an OS for developing countries with little to no internet. They have an ISO for Arm devices as well. The full ISO has tons of content from farming to cooking.
Whew. For a second there, I thought this would keep all my 128-bit addresses bone-dry, but my 32-bit IPv4 addresses would be soaking wet. I was both scared and confused.

@@gridbasedotnet great! I guess I should’ve added about the VPN, is it proprietary or can I use my own? Reason being, I don’t want any VPN under the 5/7/9 if you know what I mean. Also how susceptible is it to being hacked? I’m not familiar with Linux but willing to learn.
Looks like you've still got some work to do to get it properly functional, the demo shows that its missing fonts at a minimum. Seems noddy, but if you have no internet and are relying on the info to "rebuild civilisation" being able to read the information probably rates pretty highly on that list of things that needs to be sorted.

No outside connection is required. The data is hosted locally.
Would you consider to take a commission to make a screen mount to fit a pelican case for a 7” Roadom screen? I’m building something similar and can’t find a 3-D print file for my screen.

I see, you got rid of that annoying Caps Lock in your build. GJ!!
Can you connect a NAS to it for extra storage, line a WD nas?
Likely so. I haven't tested this functionality specifically but I can't see why that couldn't be made to work.
So thought a bit more about this "invention".
1. Kindle $99 ( all the books I could ever want to read in my lifetime)
If you don't know you can use a free program called Calibre to convert any book format and put on your kindle.
2. generic solar panel with USB $30 to charge the kindle and the SDR
3. SDR $199
4. Garmin GPS $199
5. waterproof case $40
Not having all of your eggs in one basket PRICELESS!
That is an excellent alternative! Not capable of doing everything the base station can do by any means. But, for strictly the IIAB function, it would do the trick. The base station features the ability to manage a plethora of digital mode communication programs over HF. In addition to that, it is a turn key solution with customer support that less tech savy folks appreciate. The best part about the free market is that we are all able to make choices about what best suites our needs, and I support the hell out of that!
Honestly if you made a bunch of these id totally buy one, Im nowhere near smart enough to build one of these myself. I also just think its really cool looking.
Well lucky for you I did just that…and more.

The problem were solving is this; Information has not been decentralized to this end. We are reliant upon network servers and private infrastructure owned by large mega corporations. Gridbase seeks to empower folks by giving them an internet style experience without needing that proprietary infrastructure. Among other things, that is the core principal.

Fun Fact: Jay Leno actually already addressed this in the early 2000s. Additionally, it was named that by the indigenous natives who lived here. They basically put the whites who were moving here into an area of their own so that they didn't interfere with the native tribes who wanted to be unbothered by them. Thanks for the kudos!

Can you run ATAK or something like it?
There’s many ways to track and share info. ATAK isn’t the best one of them from a civilian stand point. That’s why we focus on YAAC, APRS, 2 meter digital mode programs and others.
Magnetic cellar automata circuit with electro wetted display could go all year long on that battery, as while not classically fast enough to be justified commercially, it is like 1 million lower energy decades ago, and is now talking about 4 tera Hertz. However, the classic type of the MCA type circuit, can be manufactured at home. So, excellent for a survival prepper tablet which could fit in a normal laptop style case with many terabyte MCA storage space. There are cheaper manufacturing options coming out now, so a full development could be had with some crowd funding. I'm not in a health position to do so, but some completion helps and rebuilding civilisation after the catastrophe cycles, sounds good to me.
Can you disclose a roundabout price. I'm not sure I could afford this but it would be nice.
Email me for pricing
Offgridcyberdeck@gmail.com
What was the price?
@@Exidose never emailed him. Figured if I couldn't get an answer here it was more than I could afford at the time
Stephen, the reason for the email was to clarify on which model you wanted pricing. There is a $600 model, a $,400 model, and there is a $300 kit that is being launched as we speak.
This project is very much in active development, with an ever ranging effort to drive down costs and options being provided to potential customers.
As such, establishing a relationships with potential customers and nailing down exactly what their needs are is paramount to ensuring expectations are met from the very beginning.
I hope this answer provides you with some clarity.

6:55 can it have web-md downloaded, and maybe all of google earth offline maps?
It has all of google earth already. And there are numerous medical repos, including wiki-med.
How are you off grid with a gps beacon? I can find you with that. Also who’s maintaining these satellites if the internet is down? They can’t reposition and they’ll be destroyed. That’s why you have the cyber deck in the first place.
The gps is a piece of hardware you can optionally connect if you choose to do so. As a company, we’re only taking advantage of the existing satellite infrastructure. Not managing our own. So, if infrastructure collapsed, you wouldn’t be able to precisely geolocate yourself. However, you’d still have access to pre-downloaded map repositories, so you could treat it like a regular map and orient yourself using terrain features and a compass.
@@gridbasedotnet what you want in there is LoRa Mesh transceiver or a full SDR transceiver. With a decent SDR you can pickup and decode GPS as well as lots of other messages. What you have there is a oversized cellphone. You could just keep a cell phone handy and have the same thing. Jailbreak an iPhone and install Kwix
Actively Working on LoRa. And, the Cyberdeck ships with SDR equipment/antennas for the purpose you’re referencing.
The name of the game is contingency. GPS is only one way that cyberdeck can skin the cat, if the user chooses to skin it that way.

All information on the device is available for license free use.
Looks like you've still got some work to do to get it properly functional, the demo shows that its missing fonts at a minimum.
Seems noddy, but if you have no internet and are relying on the info to "rebuild civilisation" being able to read the information probably rates pretty highly on that list of things that needs to be sorted.
