FAQ
Detailed Overview
This product demonstration showcases the Marvelmind Jacket's precision indoor positioning and tracking performance in real-world office conditions with physical obstructions. The system employs dual submaps operating in TDMA mode—a key configuration technique for maximizing coverage and reliability in complex indoor environments. The setup includes two 19kHz beacon units and two 31kHz beacon units alongside the Marvelmind Jacket and modem hardware (HW v4.9), representing a practical multi-frequency ultrasonic RTLS deployment. Unlike traditional indoor GPS systems that require satellite signals, this ultrasonic indoor navigation system delivers accurate real-time location data through acoustic ranging and triangulation. The video demonstrates why Marvelmind's indoor positioning technology is trusted for autonomous indoor robots, forklift tracking, and warehouse automation where GPS-denied environments demand reliable, sub-meter accuracy. TDMA frequency division ensures zero radio interference while supporting scalable beacon networks for larger facilities.
