POZYX LABS

Their core work

Pozyx Labs is a Belgian SME that develops ultra-wideband (UWB) based indoor positioning and location systems, enabling highly accurate real-time location tracking where GPS cannot reach. Their core product is a Real-Time Location System (RTLS) for indoor environments. More recently, they have expanded into smart perception sensors combining radar, lidar, and time-of-flight technologies with edge computing and AI for human monitoring applications. They bridge hardware positioning technology with intelligent software layers for industries needing precise spatial awareness indoors.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Pozyx began its H2020 journey with its core indoor positioning product (SME Phase 1 in 2018) and participated in drone technology transfer (AiRT, 2017-2018). By 2020, the company shifted toward a broader sensor intelligence strategy through NextPerception, integrating radar, lidar, and AI-driven human monitoring — moving well beyond simple UWB positioning. This evolution suggests Pozyx is transitioning from a single-product positioning company to a multi-sensor perception platform provider.

Pozyx is moving from pure indoor localization toward AI-enhanced multi-sensor perception systems, positioning itself for smart building and Industry 4.0 applications.

How they like to work

Pozyx mostly participates as a partner (2 out of 3 projects) rather than leading consortia, which is typical for a technology SME contributing specialized components to larger efforts. With 46 unique partners across 8 countries from just 3 projects, they have been part of sizeable European consortia — particularly NextPerception, which was a large Innovation Action. This suggests they are comfortable integrating their technology into multi-partner systems rather than running projects solo.

Despite only 3 projects, Pozyx has built a broad network of 46 partners across 8 countries, largely through their participation in large consortia like NextPerception. Their network spans multiple European countries, reflecting the collaborative nature of the sensor and IoT ecosystem.

What sets them apart

Pozyx brings a commercially proven indoor positioning product (UWB-based RTLS) to EU consortia — they are not just a research lab but a company with a product on the market. Their expansion into multi-sensor perception (radar, lidar, time-of-flight combined with edge AI) makes them a rare partner that can contribute both spatial awareness hardware and intelligent processing. For consortium builders, they offer a concrete technology component rather than just research capacity.

Highlights from their portfolio

• Pozyx RTLS
  Coordinated SME Phase 1 project validating their core ultra-wideband indoor positioning product for market — shows commercial maturity.
• NextPerception
  Largest project by funding (EUR 161K), representing Pozyx's strategic expansion into multi-sensor AI-driven perception systems beyond pure positioning.
