DPTTS enables next-generation digital medical triage, specifically allowing first responders to transmit patients’ biomedical data to respective medical/emergency care facilities using wearable biosensors. The mission impact of this technology is for medical triage and patient tracking tool that bridges the gap from incident/emergency […]


  • Z-Axis Location Tracking of First Responders in 3D Contextual Visualization

    NextNav will be demonstrating Z-axis service, which delivers floor level accuracy of 9-1-1 callers and first responders. During the demonstration, attendees will observe the 3D location of first responder devices on a 3D map. Attendees will observe the NextNav team moving around the building, including on stairs, escalators, and elevators.


  • Use of Ray Tracing to Model Ultra Wideband (UWB) Ranging

    This demonstration highlights a method based on ray tracing to model the ranging error of ultra-wideband (UWB) radios. Ray tracing requires the floor plans of the building and the electromagnetic properties of the construction materials used. This simulation results exhibit a good match with actually deploying two commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) UWB nodes in a building and […]
