ZOZ objects can communicate locally - page 3

On Earth, a ring of satellites surrounding the planet could implement the ZOZ data stream. On first glance, you might think this would be optimal. However, there are some aspects of this type of channel that would be very wrong for the ZOZ.

Consider a tiny motor with six coils which pulse in sequence around a circle in order to spin a magnetic shaft. Each one communicates with the next, coordinating the timing of their pulses. Now consider that this motor is spinning at say 10,000 RPM. There would be tens of thousands of communications between coils.

If each of these had to go through a satellite link 500 kilometers up and back down, just to start the next coil 1 mm away, we would never be able to spin very rapidly.

Then consider that there might be tens of thousands or millions of similar motors all across the planet, all spinning at the same time. This would clog up our satellite ring very quickly!

And there is no need for it! Each coil is perhaps under 1mm from the next. Let's connect them directly to each other, bypassing our satellite ring completely.

This will disappoint hackers who want to listen in. On the Internet, all data goes everywhere. In the ZOZ, local data stays local.

Yet there might be a time when I am on Mars and want to check my Earth toaster's motor coil #2 internal temperature. So we need both: the ability to keep communications local, yet allow them to be global at the same time. Let's see how.
