Mesh Intelligence Network

The Mesh Intelligence Network is a platform concept that transforms old smartphones into distributed AI-powered infrastructure. One phone is useful.

One thousand phones become a sensing grid. By leveraging the built-in sensors every smartphone already has — camera, microphone, GPS, magnetometer, gyroscope, accelerometer, barometer, and AI processing — the Mesh platform enables five breakthrough applications: Mesh Metal Detector uses synchronized magnetometers to crowd-source ground-penetrating detection at a fraction of commercial costs.

Mesh Audio turns distributed phones into a synchronized 3D surround-sound ecosystem for concerts and events. Mesh Vision uses multi-angle AI capture to reconstruct full 3D spatial scenes.

Mesh Traffic Portal aggregates anonymous crowd GPS data for live density maps and event navigation. Mesh Inclinometer monitors structural tilt and movement across buildings and bridges using distributed accelerometers.

With 6 billion smartphones worldwide, zero new hardware is required.
