FAQ
Detailed Overview
Indoor drone swarms and autonomous drone shows demand centimeter-accurate positioning that GPS cannot provide. Marvelmind's ultrasonic indoor positioning system solves this with precise XYZ tracking capable of simultaneously managing up to 250 drones, with no architectural limitation preventing higher counts upon request. The system employs inverse architecture configuration using three Super-Beacons as stationary reference anchors, enabling each drone to independently calculate its position through ultrasonic time-of-flight measurements. Scalability extends horizontally through submap technology—comparable to cellular network cells—allowing seamless coverage across indoor areas spanning 10,000 to 100,000 square meters. This modular approach makes the system adaptable to warehouses, manufacturing facilities, exhibition spaces, and entertainment venues. The ultrasonic approach provides robust indoor navigation without relying on visual markers or RF interference, making it ideal for dense drone swarms where coordination precision directly impacts safety and performance. Configuration flexibility supports everything from small pilot programs to enterprise-scale autonomous operations.
