## Description

Share anything at the speed of light. Beam files, photos, music and video without Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or cloud. Private. Secure. Pure optical freedom.

ChiliBeam

Share Anything. At the Speed of Light.

ChiliBeam introduces a new way to move digital information.

Using the Optical Data Transport Protocol (ODTP), ChiliBeam transforms any display into a secure optical transmitter and any mobile camera into a receiver. Simply point a camera at an animated ODTP stream and receive files instantly—without Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mobile service, or the cloud.

No pairing.
No accounts.
No cables.
Just light.

Whether you’re sharing a document with a friend, distributing content to an audience, or transferring media between devices, ChiliBeam makes moving data as simple as aiming a camera.

Share virtually anything

• Documents (PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Text, ZIP and more)
• Photos and image collections
• Music and audio
• Videos
• Any file format your device supports

If your device can store it, ChiliBeam can beam it.

Powered by ODTP

ODTP isn’t another wireless protocol.

It’s an entirely new optical transport technology that carries digital information through animated light patterns displayed on screens and captured by cameras.

Every screen becomes a transmitter.

Every camera becomes a receiver.

Why ChiliBeam?

• No Wi-Fi required
• No Bluetooth pairing
• No mobile network required
• No cloud dependency
• Works completely offline
• Optional encryption for private transfers
• Reliable optical transport with forward error correction
• Fast and simple person-to-person sharing

Built for creators

Imagine embedding an ODTP stream into:

• YouTube videos
• Livestreams
• Presentations
• Conferences
• Digital signage
• Television broadcasts
• Classroom lessons
• Stadium displays

Your audience simply opens ChiliBeam, points their camera, and instantly receives the content you’re sharing.

No searching.
No typing URLs.
No QR codes that only contain links.

The content itself is transmitted through light.

Built for everyone

Share photos with friends.

Transfer documents between devices.

Move files where networks aren’t available.

Distribute content to hundreds—or thousands—of people simultaneously from a single display.

Whether you’re in a classroom, conference, airplane, stadium, café, or completely offline, ChiliBeam gives you a new way to move information.

Privacy first

Your files don’t have to travel through someone else’s servers.

With optional encryption and direct optical transmission, you stay in control of your data.

The future travels as light.

Every Screen Becomes a Transmitter. Every Camera Becomes a Receiver.

ChiliBeam — Data That Travels As Light.
