Grizzly Analytics is excited to announce that we will be conducting the indoor positioning testbed at the Geo IoT Conference, in May, 2016, in Brussels.
Participating vendors & researchers can demonstrate their technology solutions and have them measured along a wide variety of metrics, including accuracy, latency (update speed), resilience, infrastructure requirements, setup time, power requirements, etc. Analysis and comparisons will be segmented, including between mobile systems and hardware/chip solutions.

Intel made several announcements at MWC 2015, including a new chipset for wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi) in mobile devices. This new chipset, the 8270, include in-chip support for indoor location positioning. Below we explain their technology and show a video of it in action. With this announcement, Intel joins Broadcom, Qualcomm and other chip makers in moving broad indoor location positioning into mobile device hardware. The transition of indoor location positioning into chips is a trend identified in the newest Grizzly Analytics report on Indoor Location Positioning Technologies , released the week before MWC 2015. By moving indoor location positioning from software into hardware, chips such as Intel's enable location positioning to run continuously and universally, without using device CPU, and with less power consumption. Intel's technology delivers 1-3 meter accuracy, using a technique called multilateration, generating a new location estimate every second. While 1-
