About us

Olsonet Communications Corp. was established in June 2001, with head office in Ottawa, Canada. It was founded by a group of telecom experts from industry and academia.

Our mission is to demonstrate that ad-hoc wireless networks do work. We have found it irritating that no widely available, inexpensive ad hoc wireless solution has materialized on the market so far, despite the abundant opportunities for profitable deployment of such a solution.

Our main goal and product is a framework for holistic, rapid, reliable, customized development of ad-hoc networking applications. We bring to the table proprietary and unique components: the operating system, a variety of software interfaces to diverse RF devices, an emulation engine and unorthodox routing mechanisms.

Our ideas have been validated by successful commercial deployments, which support the evolution of our framework and help us concentrate our efforts on a solid market-driven path. We are aggressively researching new hardware and software technologies and rapidly accommodating them into our framework.

Credentials:
