The Problem & Customer Discovery

Situational awareness in high stress / high risk environments is vital.

Industries where improvements in peer-to-peer tracking have been neglected:

Military
Search and Rescue
Stunt Coordination

Current limitations:

GPS struggles in underground environments & large buildings
Ultrawideband technologies (UWB) are precise but range-limited

7 of 25

There remains no current solution in the market for obtaining reliable and precise positional information in remote areas, inside buildings or in underground structures.

That’s where we come in.

Our Solution

Tracks and Relays positional information between teammates and squadrons.

C-ARP

Displays receive Positional Data on and show it with an Intuitive UI

D-ARP

+ Command Center View

Our system features 2 modules – one for transmitting information and the other to display it. Additionally ARP also offers a command center view that will relay all information to a central command that mission coordinators can use to identify weak points in team formation and strategy.

Our system features 2 modules. The first is a communications device which contains all the tracking and communication components including our proprietary relative positioning technology.
And a display component to convey information to users. Our clients will often already have some sort of display method, and our technology will be designed to integrate with those.
Additionally our system will provide a command center view, which when possible, will relay all information back to a central location to be seen by mission coordinators.

Attribute	Proximo	LynQ

*If at least one user is connected to an uplink

Currently, there is only one commercially available solution we found which is LynQ. Their product is similar to ours but does not use the same technology we do, and ultimately we will not be fully dependent on GPS. Our product will have a higher degree of accuracy, multiple targets displayed on the UI, and we offer command center capabilities, which all provide us a competitive edge.

Though there is no solution on the market that provides the level of service that our system will have. Here’s a comparison to the Otto Lynq Pro. A product that lets you view how far away, and in which direction other people are.
Though the link system has a little more range, our ARP features more reliable tracking, higher accuracy, more informative display and the command center view.

Risk Assessment

Product:

High development & manufacturing costs

Competition and Team:

Competitors with higher budgets.
Will need to hire, designers, marketers, HR, sales teams.

Regulatory Environment & Adoption:

Government Contracts for Bulk Purchases take time
Search and Rescue will have a smaller TAM than Military

Customer Discovery & Interaction:

Garnering widespread adoption will be an iterative process.
Expanding to markets outside of Canada
