ZAC, the Zombie Apocalypse Computer
ZAC is an open-source, self-contained survival computer designed to operate completely off-grid.
Built around a Raspberry Pi 5, ZAC integrates a local AI assistant, mesh radio communication, software-defined radio, offline knowledge archives, and GPS navigation into a ruggedized Pelican case. No internet required. No cloud dependencies. No subscriptions.
ZAC OS provides a unified interface for all system functions:
- Local LLM for queries and assistance
- Offline Wikipedia, survival references, and medical guides
- LoRa mesh communication with other ZAC units
- SDR for monitoring aircraft, weather satellites, and emergency broadcasts
- GPS navigation with offline maps
Fully open source. Fully offline. Field-serviceable.
More to come…
