Last monthWISER Systems, a leader in wireless real-time location systems (RTLS), was awarded a new patent for WISER’s proprietary ultra-wideband (UWB) positioning devices. This is WISER’s second patent awarded in the past month and WISER’s 11th since January of 2020.
WISER’s recent awards have addressed innovations ranging from physical device design to techniques for managing multipath signals between wireless devices. The United States Patent Office has also awarded WISER multiple patents for applications of location data in the healthcare space. Furthermore, the company has received several international patents, with seven more patents pending and eight more under development.
Based on patents won last year alone, WISER’s growing portfolio situates the company in the upper tier of patent-winning organizations in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area. The leading companies for patent awards in North Carolina’s Research Triangle, for example, received nine or more patents in 2020,according to the Triangle Business Journal.
“We are very proud of the fact that we are right up there with some of the biggest technology companies in the Triangle in terms of patent activity,” WISER’s CEO Dr. Elaine Rideout commented. “We’ve been told we have the leading engineering team in UWB RTLS in the U.S. today and I believe this lends credence to that assertion.”
"The number one priority at WISER Systems is innovation,” added Dr. Seth Hollar, CTO and primary inventor of WISER’s Redundant Radio Localization and Tracking (RRLT) technology. “From our beginning as a company, we've been developing novel solutions to improve accuracy and performance to be the best in our field in localization. Our continuing cycle of innovation is reflected in the growing number of seminal patents that further push those boundaries within the RTLS industry."
Hollar further expressed appreciation for the tireless efforts and sustained excellence of the WISER engineering team and the company’s patent attorneys,Stanek Lemon Crouse + Meeks.
Wiser当前的项目是创新硬件和软件解决方案的开发商，集中在创建新的RRLT硬件和软件算法，增强系统的精度和实用性，并扩展智慧定位器在更多的行业和用例中扩展。去年，Wiser发布了新的坚固的跟踪设备以及众多软件功能，以增强定位器的前端和后端功能。霍拉尔说，该公司正在进行的研发工作的目标是在未来几年内获得一百多年的专利。
