NavigateIO is a first commercialized product from a unique infrastructure-free, real-time localization technology, supported by NEC Labs America.
First responders use NavigateIO to track and monitor their crew during emergencies. NavigateIO proactively locates personnel and communicates with mission control visually, precisely, and in real-time without needing GPS. The ability for commanders to constantly visualize the location of their entire crew during emergencies improves safety and decision-making. NavigateIO works for both inside structure fires and in wildfire situations. NavigateIO can also be utilized by police/SWAT crews and the military.
