Software to send computer data through the radio?

Vinny Lohan, a 22-year-old engineering student has claimed that he has developed one special software which will able to send computer data or emails through radio waves.

In an interview with NDTV, Vinny Lohan, the CEO of New Zealand based company OneBeep, said, “Computers are all about zeros and ones. Be it video or text or music, to a computer, it is all zeros and ones. Since that’s so, we asked ourselves, can we take a book or a video and convert it into music. And then send it over the airwaves. Turns out the answer was yes.”

The process is simple. To send a file, the broadcaster needs to simply drag it into the software and OneBeep changes that data into an audio file, which will transmitted over the airwaves. Users can adjoin the radio with a laptop or a PC or tablet using a normal jack.

“It’s a bit like bit-torrent. When you are downloading something, the software is intelligent enough to know when something is paused and when it is restarted. We break digital data into packets. The software is converting audio into packets of data on the computer. Say your signal is weak or your battery died. When it restarts, it starts from the place it left off,” Vinny Lohan added.
