Description
Privacy-first, cross-platform P2P local file transfer and cinema streaming system. AirDrop-style LAN transfers at 78 MB/s + zero-wait chunked video streaming with sub-200ms frame-accurate device handoff.
The Experiment
Frustrated by USB cables and cloud uploads just to watch anime on the big TV. Built LocalDrop so any file or video streams peer-to-peer in under 200ms with zero cloud dependency, zero battery drain when idle, and frame-perfect cinema handoff.
Core Insights
Built a dual-engine zero-cloud P2P system: a high-throughput Rust TCP core achieving 73–78 MB/s with bounded memory and streaming SHA-256 integrity, plus an HTTP 206 chunked video streaming layer with frame-accurate pause/resume handoff across phones, laptops, and Smart TVs on LAN.
