relay
︎ Once outside the body, the optic signals bypass standard protocols, instead extending the hybrid bio-optic network architecture into a nature-first magneto-optic multi-hop relay – incorporating and optionally leveraging other network users alongside bacterial "antennas" for seamless, distributed propagation.
︎ Bioengineered magnetotactic colonies allow the relay module to function as a transceiver by converting between different signal types and act as living, programmable biomechanical magneto-optic transducers that adapt, self-repair and evolve their communication capabilities, mute to purely digital interception.
This heterogeneous network combines:
– biological computing elements (engineered bacteria)
– photonic communication links
– multi-life form nodes as active network participants
and implements custom protocols at multiple layers, including:
– physical layer: bacterial antenna interfaces
– network layer: routing through the multi-hop mesh
– application layer: custom communication
︎ This architecture enables new forms of human-computer-biological interaction, allowing direct biological interfaces while maintaining the speed and bandwidth of photonic links for longer-distance “hops” making BPCI-R’s relay component simultaneously a network topology, a bio-hybrid protocol stack and a distributed biocomputing architecture.
