Abstract
A system for using free-space optics to interconnect a plurality of computing nodes can include a plurality of optical transceivers that facilitate free-space optical communications among the plurality of computing nodes. The system may ensure a line of sight between the plurality of computing nodes and the optical transceivers to facilitate the free-space optical communications. The line of sight may be preserved by the position or placement of the computing nodes in the system. The position or placement of the computing nodes may be achieved by using different shaped enclosures for holding the computing nodes.
