How is the tech different from https://www.wiliot.com/ and how did you guys manage to be first to market as I thought they were the pioneers of the ultra-thin thin bluetooth stickers?
Absolutely - you can buy ours today and we'll ship tomorrow!
I guess we haven't been very vocal about what we're doing, we wanted to have something that worked and was tested before shouting about it.
> We have a very small power source inside our labels - this gives us a range of 20m+.
> Williot don't have a battery and I imagine instead reflect signals. Having previously worked in the RF energy harvesting space I would imagine their range is at best 3ft.
And so while their tech is extremely cool (provided it works, once burnt twice shy as they say) it's a different use case.
follow up question - does it need at least a few active users to triangulate the sticker position or would 1 user be enough?
if so, how are you able to determine location from a single bluetooth beacon and user?
I know for example the tile app will only tell you how far you are from the tile as opposed to the position of the tile.
