Send and receive small data packets over sound. The packets have a size of 50 bits and transmitting one packet takes ~1.7 seconds.

Based on the protocol described in "Chirp technology: an introduction". It's not compatible with the Chirp protocol. The parameters for error correction are not published in the article.

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
audio-barcode = { git = "https://github.com/Unrud/audio-barcode" }

Then you can do something like:

use audio_barcode::Transceiver;

// Init
const SAMPLE_RATE: u32 = 44100;
let mut transceiver = Transceiver::new(SAMPLE_RATE);

// Receive
loop {
    let sample: f32 = ...;
    if let Some(payload) = transceiver.push_sample(sample) {
        println!("Received: {:?}", payload);
    }
}

// Transmit
let payload = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9];
for &frequency in transceiver.send(&payload).iter() {
    for &sample in transceiver.generate_beep(frequency).iter() {
        // Play sample
    }
}
