Benefits of 4D1
Unmatched Accuracy and Reliability
Advanced sensor fusion delivers rock solid, drift-free millimeter-level 3D accuracy with full 6DoF — precise enough to track human motion and robotic movements in one system.
Fast Setup and Time-To-Value
Deploy and start collecting actionable data in days, not months. Our self-calibrating infrastructure and robust hardware mean low maintenance and predictable performance.
High Data Rate, Low Latency
Up to 120 Hz positioning data with ultra-low latency enables real-time responsiveness and smooth motion capture for the reliable synchronization of workers and robots.
Infinitely Scalable
From single workstations to full factory coverage, 4D1 scales seamlessly. Add more trackers or extend coverage with zero compromise in accuracy or data rates.
AI-Ready Process Data
Unified motion capture of humans and machines provides a single source of truth — a golden foundation for AI-driven process optimization, unlike fragmented legacy systems.
Seamless Integration
Open APIs allow easy integration into robots, automation systems, or enterprise software. Embed 4D1 hardware directly into products to differentiate and accelerate adoption.
4D1 Trackers
4D1 trackers are compact, rugged devices that deliver drift-free, millimeter-level 3D positioning with full 6DoF by receiving ultrasonic signals from 4D1 beacons and performing on-device sensor fusion.
Attached to people, robots, or assets, they instantly stream real-time motion data precise enough to capture both human and robotic movements — enabling safer collaboration and scalable automation.
