GNSS positioning with inertial sensing, producing movement analytics and dwell mapping rather than only a position trace. Where something spent its time is frequently a more useful output than where it was at each moment.
A position trace tells you a route. Aggregate enough traces and a different question becomes answerable: where do assets or people actually spend time, where do they congregate, which areas are used and which are not.
Adding inertial sensing improves both. It fills gaps where satellite visibility is intermittent — under structures, between buildings, indoors briefly — and it distinguishes genuine dwell from a lost fix, which a position-only system cannot.
The output is heat mapping and dwell analytics rather than a moving dot, which is what makes it useful for utilisation and process questions rather than only for finding things.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Positioning | Multi-constellation GNSS |
| Aiding | Inertial measurement, for gap filling and dwell discrimination |
| Output | Movement analytics, dwell time and spatial heat mapping |
| Strength | Distinguishes genuine dwell from lost fix |
| Typical markets | Logistics, construction, agriculture, facilities, events |
Maturity — silicon-proven, FPGA-validated or RTL stage — is confirmed at enquiry for the specific configuration you need, rather than claimed generically here.
Send the target node, the interface requirements and the integration context. If this is not the right fit, that will be said early rather than discovered at integration.
It fills gaps where satellite visibility is intermittent, and it distinguishes genuine dwell from a lost fix — a distinction a position-only system cannot make, and one that materially affects dwell analytics.
Understanding where assets or people actually spend time rather than where they were at each moment — which answers utilisation, congestion and process questions that a position trace alone does not.
Tell us the specification, the constraint and the deadline. Programmes that cross silicon, radio, embedded and AI are where Faststream is strongest.
