RayIQ™ measures direction and spread of light — not images — enabling millimeter-scale pose, posture, and motion tracking indoors without cameras, markers, or line-of-sight constraints.
Why Indoor Tracking Fails Today
Cameras struggle indoors:
- Occlusion (people, furniture, walls)
- Blind spots
- Exposure / flicker / rolling shutter artifacts
- Heavy compute → thermal + latency
- Privacy intrusion
- Lighting dependency
- Requires perfect line-of-sight
IMUs drift in seconds.
RF systems scatter, multipath, or jam.
RayIQ is the first indoor system that doesn’t need images, RF, or perfect geometry.
How RayIQ Reads Indoor Environments
RayIQ interprets indoor illumination fields:
- Ceiling LEDs
- Wall sconces
- Display screens
- Hallway lights
- IR spotlights
- IoT bulbs
- Projector patterns
- Flashing pixel clusters
Each source is a directional beacon, even when diffused.
Core cell designs decode:
- Angle of arrival
- Spread pattern
- Intensity gradient
- Shadow structure
Every reading → a 3D unit vector.
Two RayIQ → triangulation.
RayIQ + IMU → full 6DoF in camera rooms, corridors, and cluttered spaces.
Core Indoor Advantages
1. Zero Cameras
No privacy concerns. No images stored or transmitted.
2. Sub-centimeter Pose Estimation
Better than camera mocap under clutter / furniture.
3. Works With Existing Lights
Most indoor rooms are already instrumented.
4. IMU Drift Cancellation
Continuous “ground truth” orientation from illumination.
Applications Across Defense, Training, Industry, and Home
Defense Training (Army / Marines)
6DoF weapon tracking, soldier pose, room clearing biomechanics.
Indoor Navigation (Air Force, Navy, Space Force)
Aircraft hangars, below-deck navigation, bunkers, engine rooms.
VR/AR/XR Consumer Systems
Absolute pose without external cameras or base stations.
Industrial Robotics
Automated picking, worker–robot coordination, warehouse nav.
Smart Buildings
Indoor location awareness, safety mapping, occupancy sensing.
How RayIQ Works in Complex Rooms
RayIQ decodes orientation by reading:
- Ceiling light direction
- Wall bounce
- Floor scatter
- Object-edge shadows
- Screen flicker patterns
- IR pulses
- Structured gradients from LED strips
Even a complicated office or barracks room becomes a dense constellation of angular cues.
Pose Tracking: Entire Body, Tools, and Spaces
RayIQ reads pose in absolute coordinates:
- Head
- Torso
- Arms
- Legs
- Fingernails
- Weapons
- Tools
- VR props
- Wearable robots (exosuits)
Every segment has its own orientation vector →
Linked together → full skeletal pose reconstruction.
Better than camera mocap:
Cameras can’t see axial rotation of limbs. RayIQ measures it directly.
RayIQ vs. IMUs Indoors
| Capability | IMU Only | RayIQ + IMU |
|---|---|---|
| Drift | YES | NO |
| Absolute heading | NO | YES |
| Elevation stability | Poor | Excellent |
| Occlusion issues | None | None |
| Pose accuracy | Low | High |
| Works in clutter | Yes | Yes |
| Needs cameras? | No | No |
RayIQ for Wearables & Exosuits
For Army, Marines, Air Force, and special ops training:
- Fingertip-mounted LDDs
- Palm and knuckle LDDs
- Hand-back LDD for whole-hand orientation
- Tibia/femur units for gait biomechanics
- Chest/helmet units for posture tracking
- Shoulder/elbow/wrist orientation mapping
- Exosuit–body alignment in real time
- Haptic feedback for injury prevention
Integration With Indoor Infrastructure
- Existing LEDs: Turn any ceiling into a positioning system.
- IoT Bulbs: Controlled sequencing = indoor triangulation lattice.
- Screens: TVs, tablets, laptops emit pixel clusters = perfect indoor LSUs.
- Wearable Emitters: RayIQ + IRED loops → active triangulation when needed.
System Performance
- 100M× lower compute than cameras
- Zero drift
- No calibration loops
- Works in total clutter
- Works in hallways, stairwells, warehouse aisles
- Immune to flicker
- No thermal issues
- Safe for privacy-critical buildings
