In development

One radio stays local.One stays online.

RadioDuet is a managed dual-radio platform for building app-connected networks of sensors, motors, cameras and other local wireless devices—without making one radio do both jobs.

Designed from technology already operating across several real-world connected-device projects.

A connected-product foundation

Bring the device idea. Keep the interesting work.

RadioDuet is being built to take care of the infrastructure that often turns a fast prototype into a long engineering project.

01

Always-listening local radio

A dedicated processor remains focused on nearby ESP-NOW devices while the second maintains the internet connection.

02

Two-way MQTT control

Receive local events immediately and send app-triggered commands or settings back to field devices.

03

Managed OTA releases

Upload compiled firmware, maintain separate test and production releases, and see what every device is running.

04

Fleet heartbeat

Track online status, last contact, firmware versions and the health of deployed gateways and local nodes.

The builder brings

  • The local sensor, motor, camera or device
  • The behavior that makes the product useful
  • Compiled firmware—or source when integration help is wanted
  • The customer problem and application idea

RadioDuet handles

  • Local-to-online communications
  • MQTT messaging and app-triggered commands
  • Test and production OTA management
  • Device heartbeat, versions and deployment visibility
From local event to application

Keep local devices and online applications moving together.

A field device detects an event over ESP-NOW. RadioDuet receives it locally, publishes it through MQTT, and can immediately update an app, store the event, trigger a notification or send another command.

1 · Field device Something happens locally

Motion is detected, a door opens, a temperature changes, a button is pressed, a camera captures an image or a motor completes an operation.

2 · ESP-NOW The local radio receives it

The dedicated local processor stays focused on nearby devices while the other processor remains connected online.

3 · MQTT RadioDuet publishes the event

The event can reach your server, database, dashboard, notification rules or application without interrupting local listening.

4 · App and automation Your project responds

Update a screen, change an LED, alert a user, store a history record or send a new instruction back to a field device.

Two-way control

See local devices—and tell them what to do.

RadioDuet is designed for commands as well as events. A control in the app can travel through MQTT, across the puck and out over ESP-NOW to the selected field device.

Controls a project could expose

The builder defines the actions and limits. RadioDuet provides the managed path between the app and the device.

Spin a motor three times Take a picture now Request a sensor reading Change active hours Adjust a threshold Turn on a relay Run calibration Restart a field device

Know what actually happened

Projects can report command progress instead of leaving the user to wonder whether a button press reached the device.

Beyond the workbench

Manage devices after they are deployed.

RadioDuet is being shaped around the operating tools already used across our own connected-device projects.

HB

MQTT heartbeat

See which devices are online, when they last checked in and whether local nodes are still reporting.

OTA

Firmware visibility

Upload a compiled binary, assign the desired version and see what every managed device is actually running.

T/P

Test and production

Keep local development devices on the test release while field devices remain on the current production release.

Next-cycle updates

Local devices can receive an assigned firmware release on their next power cycle or update opportunity.

CFG

Remote settings

Change schedules, thresholds and operating behavior without visiting each deployed device.

LOG

Events and command history

Give builders and operators a clearer record of what devices reported, what users requested and what completed.

Bring your own hardware

RadioDuet is the bridge—not a closed sensor catalog.

Builders can choose the local boards and hardware that fit their product. RadioDuet focuses on connectivity, management, OTA, MQTT and app control.

What could you build?

A starting point for many connected products.

The same RadioDuet foundation could support a single prototype or a growing network of devices in the field.

Property motion network App-controlled dispenser Remote camera system Refrigeration alerts Equipment monitoring Wildlife or pest detection Building automation Custom sensor networks
Start with an MVP

Move from a working device idea to a managed demonstration.

Early RadioDuet projects may include hands-on integration help. The goal is to connect the useful local behavior to MQTT, app controls, OTA and deployment visibility without rebuilding that infrastructure from scratch.
