The modfinity network

Modfinity is a specialized wired network. Its purpose is to connect many devices that are distributed in two or three dimensional space. Focus is on relatively low-cost consumer devices with small size and low number of connecting poles.

Main Features:

  • Unlimited number and depth of network nodes
  • Unlimited number of hubs
  • Unlimited number of branches at each hub
  • Hot-plugging of new network participants and entire pre-connected sections
  • Small footprint, low implementation cost for both network transceivers and hubs
  • Implements data link and above layers in OSI network model
  • Works with any physical layer, including one-wire 
  • Implementation using FPGA, CPLD or microcontroller

Advanced (optional) Features:
 
  • Simplified versions
    • hubs without any electronic components
    • implementation using few standard, non-programmable digital components and a microcontroller
  • Fault tolerant routing algorithms, shortest path routing
  • Combination with standard bus protocols such as I²C or SPI within certain limitations
  • Latency / timing control for simultaneous input and output, for instance in audio applications

Possible Applications:

Highly modular devices such as 

  • modular consumer goods
  • 2D or 3D sensor / actor networks
  • modular human computer interaction devices
  • modular audio recording and playback devices or 
  • modular lighting devices or displays
