positioning engine

Location starts here

Accurate location is key to building systems that work seamlessly with the real world. Our Positioning Engine delivers precise, real time location data from state of the art sensor fusion and sensors so you can build with confidence.
purpose built

Platform aware motion model

Off-the-shelf localization software treats every device the same. We don’t. Our Positioning Engine understands the difference between a human and a drone, ensuring your device stays on track even with low cost sensors in challenging environments.
DEAD RECKONING

Confidence with or without GNSS

Our dead-reckoning algorithms bridge the gap when GNSS signals disappear. By tightly fusing IMU, odometry, and motion data, the Positioning Engine maintains precise tracking indoors, underground, and everywhere in between.
CONTINUOUS TRACKING
Keeps position stable through tunnels, warehouses, and urban canyons — even without satellite input.
MOTION MODELING
Applies adaptive filters and physics-based models to fine tune IMU models and aid in GNSS tracking.
SEAMLESS HANDOFF
Transitions smoothly between GNSS and inertial navigation for uninterrupted trajectory data.
sensor fusion

Make your sensors smarter, automatically

Our Positioning Engine continuously refines sensor inputs in real time. Using advanced fusion and filtering, it corrects installation offsets, bias, drift, and noise — delivering centimeter-level accuracy across IMUs, wheel encoders and other sensors.
AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION
Continuously analyzes and re-weights sensor inputs in real time to maintain accuracy as conditions change.
ERROR COMPENSATION
Identifies and corrects sensor-specific bias, IMU drift, and encoder scaling to keep data stable and reliable.
real-time feedback loop
Feeds corrections back into the system instantly, improving precision with every movement and eliminating sensor lag seen in other systems.
hardware-agnostic

Runs on any platform

Our Positioning Engine is built to perform anywhere — from embedded modules to external processors. It delivers identical accuracy across architectures, giving OEMs control over integration, performance, and power.
CROSS-ARCHITECTURE SUPPORT
Runs natively on lightweight MCUs and high-performance processors alike.
PORTABLE CORE
Written in C/C++ for easy integration into custom hardware and software stacks.
FLEXIBLE DEPLOYMENT
Supports on-module, companion, or external configurations — without sacrificing precision.
how it WORKS

An army of PhDs for your team

The Positioning Engine runs advanced estimation in real time—Kalman filters, sensor fusion, error propagation, and motion models. It reconciles multipath, cycle slips, IMU drift, and odometry errors into a coherent pose solution that stays stable even when signals don’t.

platform

Your location stack

The Positioning Engine is one layer of the Point One platform. Alongside GraphQL APIs and RTK Network corrections, it’s part of a complete stack designed to deliver stable, real-world positioning.

GraphQL

GraphQL makes it simple to integrate the Positioning Engine into your stack. Access outputs, diagnostics, and metadata through efficient, flexible queries.

RTK Network

Point One operates the densest RTK corrections network in the world. It streams centimeter-level corrections in real time over IP or L-band, ensuring your Positioning Engine always has the data it needs.
