Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device (102) and method (300) for mass-driven gravimetric networking for extra-terrestrial Internet of Things (IoT) environments. The device (102) includes nodes includes a plurality of gravimetric Internet of Things (IoT) nodes (106). Each gravimetric IoT node (106) includes a gravimetric transmitter assembly (104) configured to generate localized gravitational field perturbations. Each gravimetric IoT node (106) includes a gravimetric receiver assembly (108) configured to detect the localized gravitational field perturbations. A controller (114) operatively coupled to the gravimetric transmitter assembly (104) and the gravimetric receiver assembly (108), where the controller (114) is configured to encode the environmental data into gravimetric waveform patterns. The controller (114) controls actuation of the mass-actuation elements, enables propagation of the localized gravitational field perturbations and decodes, the localized gravitational field perturbations into digital data. The controller (114) transmits the digital data to neighbouring nodes in a decentralized mesh communication network.
