Deep Location®

The most accurate indoor location platform,
available at scale.

Highly Accurate Positioning

Accurate indoor location is very difficult to get right. We make it work. 

Pointr's indoor positioning system technology does not rely on the usage of the phone's compass, which in many indoor environments fails to deliver useful orientation. It also does not rely on fingerprinting or geomagnetic techniques, which are less accurate and cumbersome to install and maintain.

Instead, Pointr’s Deep Location® platform utilizes sensor fusion techniques and machine-learning algorithms to provide incredible accuracy both in terms of blue dot location and orientation.

Seamless multi-floor positioning

Pointr’s technology provides accurate indoor positioning even in large and complex buildings and across multiple levels. 

Multi-floor positioning is hard to achieve. That's why we use sensor fusion to ensure great accuracy, even in buildings with high ceilings and mezzanines. Our technology automatically detects which floor the user is on within a maximum of 3 seconds and updates the user interface accordingly.

Pointr's multi-floor technology is already deployed in some of the world's largest and most complex buildings such as international airports, events venues and shopping malls.

Smooth outdoor to indoor transition

Even with a super accurate indoor positioning system, translating that to indoor navigation is notoriously difficult. Indoor navigation must take into account not only positioning and orientation, but mapped location and obstacles such as moving from floor to floor of a building or from inside to outside and vice versa. 

Pointr's technology automatically chooses whether to use Deep Location® or GPS thanks to its indoor-outdoor positioning feature. There's no need to install any hardware outdoors - that makes our technology easy to integrate in smart cities with multiple venues. 

How does Indoor Positioning work

Highly Scalable

No one has come close to scaling indoor location. That's where we come in.

At Pointr, we've built Deep Location®, a highly scalable indoor location platform.

  • We utilize edge computing to process a user's position, thus ensuring excellent accuracy irrespective of the number of active users in a venue. 
  • With MapScale®, our patented mapping technology, our clients get customized digital maps of all of their buildings within hours.
  • We can deploy a range of location-based services in thousands of buildings just by switching our technology on, even remotely.

That's how, for the first time, we make indoor location available at scale.

Map Scale™@2x

Bring real-time location context to your mobile apps

Enable location-based services such as indoor positioning, indoor navigation, contextual engagement and much more.

How it works

The position is determined through interaction between the user’s smartphone and the sensors placed at intervals throughout the venue. 

Benefits

  • This method allows for user engagement (notifications, find your way) 
  • Very rich interaction through your mobile app

Bluetooth® Low Energy Beacons

At Pointr, we make smart use of Bluetooth® Beacons. Beacons are small radio transmitters that can be understood by nearby smartphones and tablets. They come in multiple shapes and sizes. They can be standalone battery or USB powered devices or can be integrated into WiFi access points or lighting infrastructure. Pointr does not manufacture beacons and is a hardware-agnostic company.

WiFi Access Points & Smart Lighting

Increasingly, hardware manufacturers are bundling beacon-like technology within other pieces of common hardware. Two such examples are WiFi access points and smart lighting.

Pointr can provide accurate indoor location and wayfinding to venues with existing WiFi access points and smart lighting from many brands. These pieces of smart hardware function the same as beacons, meaning that as people move around the building, their device receives signals, allowing Pointr's engine to calculate their location.
