Time Domain gives DecaWave’s ToF microlocation hardware a boost
The deal establishes Time Domain as DecaWave’s preferred partner for navigation and tracking opportunities based on two-way time-of-flight (TW-TOF) ranging and grants DecaWave a worldwide license to Time Domain’s industry-leading patent portfolio.
The partnership pairs DecaWave’s chip technology with Time Domain’s development ecosystem to shorten system integrators’ development cycles and speed time to market for new location-based solutions. The agreement also provides a framework for collaboration on products, regulatory standards, and industry symposia.
“The ubiquity of GPS has made location-based information a vital part of our daily lives,” said Ciaran Connell, DecaWave CEO. “However, many emerging applications are demanding an even greater degree of location precision and reliability, as well as the ability to operate seamlessly indoors and outdoors. We are partnering with Time Domain to capitalize on these global trends, which have created an ideal environment for UWB-based micro-location to flourish and thrive.”
The two companies have committed to expanding their collaboration in other areas to promote the adoption of UWB technology worldwide, including coordination on industry and regulatory standards and the creation of a UWB industry forum. In August, Time Domain announced the PulsON 330 (P330), its first OEM module based upon DecaWave’s DW1000 chip.
