Positioning Engine
The Pozyx patented Positioning Engine turns UWB (ultra-wideband) signals into ultra accurate positioning, which in turn provides meaningful data to make your processes more efficient.
Pozyx positioning engine
UWB doesn’t magically provide accurate positioning, it does provide the key ingredient to enable it: nanosecond accurate time-stamping of packets.
Enter the patented Pozyx positioning engine: a set of protocols and algorithms that exploit the UWB timestamps to provide the accurate location information and more.
High positioning accuracy
Several positioning algorithms are available with additional smoothing and filtering options to further improve the results. Sensor fusion for additional performance is available upon request.
Through the use of Machine Learning and advanced signal processing, the effect of obstacles (NLOS) is reduced to the maximum extent.
High real-time capacity
Capacity of 5000 position updates / sec with latencies of 20ms max. (on standard gateway equipment)
Large-scale TDOA
Support for time-difference-of-arrival over large areas supporting thousands of unique tags. TDOA offers low-power 2D positioning. For this feature, the engine keeps all anchors tightly synchronized using sub-nanosecond precision with a patented technique.
TWR positioning
Support for two-way-ranging based localization for the highest possible precision. Support for smart anchor selection to always use the best possible anchors.
Autocalibration of anchor positions.
Automagically obtain the relative 2D coordinates of the anchors to allow for extremely fast setup.
Pushing the state-of-the-art
As a spin-off of Ghent University, it is in the Pozyx DNA to keep pushing the state of the art in indoor positioning. With a team of multiple engineers and PhD’s in signal processing, machine learning and telecommunications, Pozyx relentlessly pushes the UWB technology forward.
Pozyx collaborates with different research institutes such as Ghent University and Imec and are involved in a number of national and European research projects such as Lunar or NextPerception with topics like advanced sensor fusion, UWB Angle-of-Arrival, and more.
