UFTP
Encrypted UDP based FTP with multicast
UFTP is an encrypted multicast file transfer program, designed to securely, reliably, and efficiently transfer files to multiple receivers simultaneously. This is useful for distributing large files to a large number of receivers, and is especially useful for data distribution over a satellite link (with two way communication), where the inherent delay makes any TCP based communication highly inefficient. The multicast encryption scheme is based on TLS with extensions to allow multiple receivers to share a common key. UFTP also has the capability to communicate over disjoint networks separated by one or more firewalls (NAT traversal) and without full end-to-end multicast capability (multicast tunneling) through the use of a UFTP proxy server. These proxies also provide scalability by aggregating responses from a group of receivers. -

VirtualBox
Virtualization software for x86_64 hardware
VirtualBox is a powerful open-source full virtualization software that allows a user to run one or more “guest” operating systems simultaneously inside “virtual machines” on a single physical “host” machine. It supports a wide variety of host platforms (Linux, Windows, macOS, Solaris, etc.) and guest OSes, enabling, for example, running Linux on a Windows PC, running Windows Server on a Linux host, or even legacy OSes in a controlled environment. This flexibility makes VirtualBox ideal for developers, testers, sysadmins, or hobbyists who need different OS environments, want to test software across systems, or need isolation for development, sandboxing, or security experiments. VirtualBox offers both a user-friendly GUI as well as a command-line interface and headless mode, making it useful for desktop usage as well as server or automated environments. -

SoftEther VPN
Cross-platform multi-protocol VPN software
An open-source free cross-platform multi-protocol VPN program, as an academic project from University of Tsukuba, under the Apache License 2.0. The API Suite allows you to easily develop your original SoftEther VPN Server management application to control the VPN Server (e.g. creating users, adding Virtual Hubs, disconnecting a specified VPN sessions) from JavaScript, TypeScript, C# or other languages. SoftEther VPN ("SoftEther" means "Software Ethernet") is one of the world's most powerful and easy-to-use multi-protocol VPN software. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, FreeBSD and Solaris. SoftEther VPN is an optimum alternative to OpenVPN and Microsoft's VPN servers. SoftEther VPN has a clone-function of OpenVPN Server. You can integrate from OpenVPN to SoftEther VPN smoothly. SoftEther VPN is faster than OpenVPN. SoftEther VPN also supports Microsoft SSTP VPN for Windows Vista / 7 / 8. No more need to pay expensive charges for Windows Server license for Remote-Access VPN function. -

RtspSimpleServer
ready-to-use RTSP / RTMP / LL-HLS / WebRTC server and proxy
rtsp-simple-server is a ready-to-use and zero-dependency server and proxy that allows users to publish, read and proxy live video and audio streams. Publish live streams to the server Read live streams from the server. Proxy streams from other servers or cameras, always or on-demand. Streams are automatically converted from a protocol to another. For instance, it's possible to publish a stream with RTSP and read it with HLS. Serve multiple streams at once in separate paths Authenticate users; use internal or external authentication. Redirect readers to other RTSP servers (load balancing) Query and control the server through an HTTP API. Reload the configuration without disconnecting existing clients (hot reloading) Read Prometheus-compatible metrics. Run external commands when clients connect, disconnect, read or publish streams. Natively compatible with the Raspberry Pi Camera. Compatible with Linux, Windows and macOS, does not require any dependency or interpreter. -

iperf was developed by NLANR/DAST as a modern alternative for measuring maximum TCP and UDP bandwidth performance. Iperf allows the tuning of various parameters and UDP characteristics. Iperf reports bandwidth, delay jitter, and datagram loss. iperf version 2 (in this repository) is no longer maintained by its original developers. Current ESnet development efforts are focused on version 3 of iperf (otherwise known as iperf3), which is available at: https://github.com/esnet/iperf http://software.es.net/iperf Meanwhile, a third party has taken up development and maintenance of iperf2. As of this update (November 2017), this work can be found in the following repository: https://sourceforge.net/projects/iperf2/

WiFi DensePose
Turn WiFi signals into real-time human pose estimation and detection
WiFi DensePose is a production-oriented implementation of a WiFi-based human pose estimation system that enables real-time full-body tracking using wireless signals rather than cameras. The project demonstrates how commodity mesh routers and signal processing techniques can be leveraged to infer dense human pose information, even through obstacles such as walls. It is designed to showcase the emerging field of RF-based sensing, where machine learning models interpret wireless channel data to reconstruct human movement and posture. The repository includes components for data processing, model inference, and real-time visualization, making it suitable for research and experimental deployments. Its architecture emphasizes performance and reproducibility, allowing developers to explore non-visual motion capture systems using accessible hardware. Overall, WiFi DensePose functions as an advanced research-grade toolkit for WiFi-based human sensing and pose estimation. -
