the clusterduck protocol home blog instructions home blog empowering communities through connectivity welcome to the clusterduck protocol an innovative open source firmware empowering wireless iot devices using lora technology explore endless opportunities to create fully customizable sensor and communication networks and redefine your iot experience view on github join our community what is the cdp in 2017 hurricane maria a category 5 storm severely impacted puerto rico demolishing homes and communication infrastructure to address this issue the clusterduck protocol cdp was developed in 2018 it utilizes battery powered internet of things devices to reestablish essential communication during emergencies allowing civilians to request assistance share their locations and receive vital information from local governments and responders get the hardware the clusterduck protocol runs on a variety of iot hardware including many esp32 arduinos here is a list of hardware we use though there may be many others that work we recommend the heltec lora esp32 and the ttgo t beam esp32 for a simple network you will want to make at least two ducks for bigger networks you will need more get the software to start developing you will need platformio on your computer download or git clone the cdp library from github follow the installation instructions here please note with the release of the clusterduck protocol version 4 we have different instructions if you are looking for older instructions please go here set up the network connect your board to platform io follow the these updates instructions for loading up a duck to get one running use the pre built examples or develop custom ducks of your own deploy how does it work select the islands to learn more ducklinks or ducks are iot devices powered by the clusterduck protocol these devices form the network foundation for communications and integrated sensor networks from fugitive methane emissions for oil gas fields to pressure sensors in maple syrup farm tubes ducks are able to sync together in networked clusters called clusterduck networks to share information in some scenarios this data is pushed to cloud databases and software systems over wifi cellular or satellite backhauls ducklinks ducklinks are the individual network nodes they can be large or small powered by batteries or solar panels they may have integrated sensors climate sensors motion sensors or others or integrate with external systems computers robots ducklinks sync together in networked clusters we call clusterduck networks gateways gateways sometimes called papaducks forward data from clusterduck networks up to the cloud in many scenarios it is useful for data from any network to push to the owl data management system to do this papaduck gateways are able to forward data over wifi cellular or in some cases satellite connection to land in the owl dms database data management system after pushing data to the web through a papaduck gateway this data then lands in the owl data management system databases the owl data management software helps you administer and visualize the activity on the clusterduck network in near real time observe geographic sensor or messaging data with the owl dms ducklinks ducklinks are the individual network nodes they can be large or small powered by batteries or solar panels ducklinks sync together in networked clusters we call clusterduck networks gateways gateways sometimes called papaducks forward data from clusterduck networks up to the cloud they forward data over wifi cellular or in some cases satellite connection to land in the owl dms dms after pushing data to the web through a papaduck gateway this data then lands in the owl data management system this software helps you administer and visualize the activity on the databases join more than a thousand developers that use the clusterduck protocol view on github join our community installation manual a step by step guide on how to build your own clusterduck protocol network on our github repository video tutorials go and check out this playlist with all the installation vidoes of the clusterduck protocol quackpacks integrations quackpacks are plug and play add ons that give ducks new features like sensors hardware or networking tools owl built the cdp to help improve global resilience through connectivity in march 2020 the linux foundation and owl formed a partnership to open source the clusterduck protocol learn more about tlf the ibm call for code is a technology competition empowering developers worldwide stay tuned for latest competitions and updates copyright 2026 clusterduck protocol a series of lf projects llc clusterduck is a trademark of lf projects llc for trademark usage guidelines and other applicable policies please see www lfprojects org
