BitRipple

BitRipple provides software solutions (products and services) that enable end-to-end data delivery over any type of network. BitRipple software solutions can be used for data delivery to enable immersive applications, including cloud gaming, immersive remote collaboration, Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, and Mixed Reality applications with complex real-time interactions between end users. These applications require data delivery solutions that can deliver large volumes of data in real-time with ultra-low latency between geographically distributed end points over all types of networks (including wireless networks) ‍BitRipple is building large scale data distribution solutions based on the RaptorQ erasure code (specified in IETF RFC 6330), a computationally efficient fountain code enabling exceptional data recovery and flexibility. BitRipple products provide scalable and efficient solutions, deployable on end user devices as well as the edge and core of networks. BitRipple software solutions are a uniquely designed to provide fast and reliable data transfer of files and streams from senders (pitchers) to receivers (catchers) using a unidirectional network (one without a backchannel). Our solutions are currently deployed by the defense industry to reliably move multi-gigabyte sized files at multi-gigabit per second speeds across security domains (e.g., from a lower security domain to a higher security domain). As examples of other unidirectional use cases, our solutions can be used to reliably deliver streaming video and files to automobiles using a broadcast channel (ATSC 3.0), and to send high-value time-sensitive files from LEO satellites to receivers on the ground without revealing their location (Low Probability of Detection).
