Abstract :

My presentation will discuss the introduction of a new technology for positioning involving the use of ultra wideband (UWB) radios as a means of connectivity and peer to peer positioning. The 5D UWB Modules can be used to provide centimeter positioning throughout an ecosystem. The modules can be quickly added to existing vehicles, people and robots and do not require a complex or costly installation. The UWB modules provide safe motion, preventing collisions and offering situation awareness of all tagged assets. They also permit autonomous follow and wagon training between multiple disparate systems including humans, drones and ground vehicles as well as permitting accurate, reliable autonomous navigation. My presenation will provide case studies and videos illustrating the technology in action within a variety of environments including heavy equipment, military applications, drone inspection and automotive.
