Just added indoor navigation to WeWork, without them knowing. Got this up and running in 2 days, using wifi + motion data for precise location. Every other indoor solution takes months and usually require beacons. Hyper is going to fix the indoor navigation space. 💪

Anything you can tell us about how you match up wifi to a physical location in the building? I assume you have to at least map the access points yeah? Really cool regardless.

Airports needs this! Last week I was trying to navigate in @ParisAeroport and it was hard to get between 2G and 2E. Louvre another great application.

Amazing. You are my favorite company / tech right now. So many applications, demo wows, natural growth path, and everyone wins. Retailer, customer, you. Good luck!

That is very clean. Excellent work

This is AR navigation, working outside in the Garden Center! We use WiFi + AR for precise location, so it works at any store, inside or outside, and without beacons.

This is HUGE and I’ve wanted to announce this since the day I started my company. We’re rolling out Hyper to every campus in the world. Today announcing the Hyper app, which enables 1m-accurate indoor location, with maps and AR navigation. Super easy to setup.

What I’ve learnt: Indoor maps/location has massive potential but has been stuck in enterprise hell for the past 10 years. Every solution is inaccurate, expensive, bad UX, impossibly slow to deploy. Hyper will radically transform this. Our first release has two innovations: - Self-serve onboarding == zero enterprise sales cycle - Hyper app == zero implementation, no code required With this, we've cut the sales + integration process from months to days. And of course, our technology is precise, affordable, scalable and great UX. The opportunity size here is huge -- from hospitals to airports, from museums to warehouses. I'm excited to keep pushing with new releases that make indoor location useful and accessible to everyone.

We’re making fast progress on indoor mapping at Hyper. We want to map every campus in the world. In 1 day, we mapped this 5-storey library building with full navigation. End result is amazing. Onto the next one.

Awa was brave today and went inside the indoor wolf enclosure all on her own (without using food/treats to get her inside) She is normally very afraid so this is a big step for her 🥹

A new Dunkin Donuts opened in “the hood” in South Central Los Angeles The location opened with just a drive thru and “Order Here” kiosks on the outside of the building. No indoor seating or walk-up counter service This is due to California crime. In higher crime neighborhoods food businesses are beginning to open locations where no indoor seating is an option In addition to being safer in crime heavy area, the business focuses more on to-go orders and drinks Drive thru only Dunkin’ locations are more commonly deployed in higher crime urban neighborhoods, which are overwhelmingly in Democrat led cities (this is supported by real data)

🚨🇺🇸 Northrop Grumman just leveled up hypersonic tech. Their advanced navigation system completed three successful flight tests in six months, guiding hypersonic vehicles precisely without GPS — and it’s fully reusable. This breakthrough proves that reliable, high-speed navigation is possible for the next generation of weapons and hypersonic platforms.

QACE Dynamics | Autonomous Navigation Preview Today we are showing autonomous navigation running live inside QACE, the robot plans its route on the map, then adjusts in real time as lidar and vision pick up new obstacles. All of this runs through a single navigation block inside QACE, ready to plug into different robots without touching low-level control. This navigation block is one of the core building pieces of QACE autonomy, and it’s just the first of many we will be rolling out.

This is so cool. I just asked Grok in my Model Y to navigate to three different destinations, and it automatically added them all at once, in the correct order, to the navigation in my car. Grok can also remove or edit destinations.

Once we started to work with large global retailers, we needed a better way to scale this process. Ideally, the staff at the store could do this themselves — rather than us flying our team across the world — and then we could lower the cost and timelines. So we built a self-serve version of our survey app, with a tutorial mode designed for beginners. Over time, we collected millions of data points, and so we were able to develop an algorithm which would auto-correct mistakes. In other words, if the surveyor accidentally placed their ground-truth location in the wrong place on the map, we could use our algorithms to detect it, and correct it. So now we have WiFi, and with and our efforts on producing a high quality survey, we have the best WiFi positioning available. With WiFi on its own, it’s achieving 3 meter accuracy. This is a great foundation to build on. WiFi + Motion data To refine this down to 1-meter accuracy, we realised that we could combine WiFi with the same technology behind self-driving cars and robotics: a motion system called SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping). SLAM uses the accelerometer, gyroscope and camera system to understand precise device motion. Imagine a car driving through a tunnel, using the motion since its last GPS ping to keep location accurate until it comes out the other side. On a phone, this technology is very reliable, and measures device motion with high precision. But SLAM is measuring motion within its own coordinate space, it’s not aligned with the real world. SLAM tracks the user’s relative motion, like “moved forward 2 meters, then turned left”, but does “forward” mean “north”, or some other direction? It’s not calibrated, so it could mean any location, any direction. We can’t rely on the compass to help us out with this, because phone compasses are notoriously incorrect — everyone knows the frustration of being sent the wrong way down a street. So our job was to align this motion data with the triangulation data we were receiving from WiFi. We designed an algorithm that could simulate every possibility, filter the unlikely scenarios, and hone in your location, using WiFi as an anchor. So WiFi gives us the initial blue dot, SLAM gives us motion, and as the user starts walking and we receive more data, our algorithms can refine location accuracy down to a consistent 1-meter accuracy. We’ve tested these algorithms in many locations, on hundreds of hours of ground-truth data:

For the past few months, a small crew got together to overhaul Notion sidebar / navigation. We called the project "Slippery Slope" :) For anyone who's worked on a similar project knows how hard it is to make any changes to navigation, because it directly impacts how millions of people use your product every single day. To my surprise and delight, the team was able to ship something remarkably better in a matter of weeks. We've been using it internally for some time now, and I cannot imagine going back. We start ramping to users tomorrow, but feel free to reply here, and I'll try my best to turn on early access!

This is insanely crazy!!! This was my favorite part of the interview how they both guessed each every question correctly. It only takes friends if decades to answer such but 2 months knowing each other and both got everything correctly. They're literally each other reflection. Nice one👏🏾

🇮🇷 Iran’s “low-cost” cruise missile navigation is smart layering They combine 3 layers: -Cheap commercial GPS for basic positioning -Inertial navigation to keep flying without signals -Terrain matching to correct errors using preloaded maps and ground scans The key is terrain matching, where the missile compares the ground below with stored elevation maps and continuously corrects its path in real time, even if GPS is jammed. Nothing revolutionary. This tech exists for decades. What matters is the approach: cheap components, open data, and multiple backups working together. End result: not perfect, but reliable enough to hit targets without needing a military satellite network. Source: loadedlore YT
