WISER Systems provides best-in-class location and tracking solutions for nearly any industry, setting, or use case. WISER has won multiple awards and serves various entities within the United States Department of Defense.
WISER delivers robust, reliable positioning and timing data using a unique combination of ultra-wideband (UWB) technology and WISER’s patented tracking technology. Initially developed with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, WISER’s system delivers persistent localization even in tough environments including indoors, underground, and in GPS-obstructed areas.
Defense Applications
Because the WISER System generates real-time location data at a highly precise level, it has countless uses in defense, including:
- Logistics and inventory improvements in military warehouses
- Safety and security applications in military bases
- Location-based operational insights for military depots or other settings
Defense benefits
- Ability to deliver real-time location data to standard-issue end-user devices (EUDs)
- Size, weight, and power (SWaP2) optimization
- Wholly U.S. owned and operated company
- Hardware manufactured in North America
Past Performance
WISER’s past performance in defense includes contracts with the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army, and U.S. Navy. WISER has also provided real-time location solutions for multiple civilian agencies in the U.S. Government as well as three leading aerospace / defense contractors. Furthermore, WISER has participated in many DoD-sponsored field trials and closed demonstrations at U.S. Army, Air Force, and Naval bases as well as joint command operations such as Trident Spectre.
In 2023, WISER won a two year SBIR Phase II with SOCOM to deliver a field-ready prototype with GPS-free tracking, enhancing situational awareness and communications in comms-denied environments. In 2021, the Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic awarded WISER a location technology category prize in the Palmetto Tech Bridge Challenge. In 2018 WISER RRLT won Phase I, II, and III awards in the U.S. Army’s first ever xTechSearch competition.
