The missing sense of physical AI — beyond GPS, lidar & cameras
Spatial Intelligence for the Autonomous World.
Every autonomous machine — humanoid, forklift, drone
— must know one thing before it moves: where it is. And with it: where every
human stands, where every other machine is, and what the environment itself is doing —
in real time. Where GPS dies and cameras go blind,
we sell the sense that does not fail.
* Customer-reported payback across deployed reference sites — earned before a single robot; every site is robot-ready. † Versus wired alternatives delivering both positioning and sensor data.
The big bang of physical AI
1.3 billion robots are coming.
“1.3 billion AI robots by 2035 — 4 billion by 2050.”
Citi GPS · “The Rise of AI Robots”
Humanoids, vehicles, vessels and drones, working hand in hand with people
across industry and society. Every single one of them must answer the same question before
it moves: where am I, where is everyone else, and what is happening around me?
Language models gave machines reasoning. They did not give them a place to stand.
That missing sense is spatial intelligence — and we have spent 14 years building it,
for the environments where the work is actually done.
Everyone solves a piece. Nobody owns the layer.
Autonomy stops where its sensors do. We don’t.
AI cannot optimize what it cannot see.
Every autonomy stack is blind somewhere — the layer is where the blindness ends.
Without Wittra — the pieces
▸On-board sensing — cameras · lidar · radar — fails where the money is made
▸Tracking silos — position only
▸GPS & private 5G — dark indoors
▸Every machine alone — it stops
With Wittra — the layer
▸Position + real-time environment data — one network
▸Indoors · outdoors · underground
▸One shared reality — machines and people
▸Nobody stops
Through the eyes of the humanoid
Every colleague. Every forklift. Every person — visible beyond its own sensors.
One source of spatial truth across the entire site: an autonomous
3D-positioning sensor mesh carrying real-time positioning, environmental awareness and
shared spatial context in one unified platform. Humans and machines share the same
workspace — and the same reality. A near-miss that never happens.
Survived, not simulated
Proven where autonomy is hardest.
Every figure below is pre-robot ROI —
paid back by tracking and sensing alone, before a single robot rolled in. And every
one of these sites is robot-ready today: the sense layer is already in the
walls when the fleet arrives. That is the reason to invest now — not when robots are
proven and everyone wants the same floor.
“No other technology would have worked in our difficult steel and concrete-filled
environment; it was the only viable choice.”

The hardware of the layer
One mesh. Every sense.
A compact product family — Sense360 tags, positioning beacons, sub-metre
UWB click-ons and hybrid gateways — deployed without wired infrastructure, carrying
3D positioning and live sensor data on the same network. The unified adaptive 3D
sense mesh, available out of the box.
One gateway unifies the radios — mesh positioning over sub-GHz, UWB,
WiSUN, LoRa and mioty — and third-party industrial sensors join that same mesh
directly or through the IO click-on, with thousands already compatible. That is what makes
it one network instead of five. Most sites are live within hours.
Any world model. Any silicon. Any robot. One layer for autonomous systems of every kind — humanoids, AMR fleets, vehicles, drones. A patented
hybrid wireless network through a single unified gateway — positioning that scales from
site-wide ±5 m coverage to ±0.5 m 3D precision by deployment. TPM-secured. Cloud or on-premises.
Integrates with existing industrial software and digital twin environments.
Developed and produced in Europe, operated at a 99.9% SLA with multitenancy and
RESTful APIs — Security by Design aligned to the EU Cyber Resilience Act, with
encrypted, authenticated communications and signed over-the-air updates.

Patented technology relationships and ecosystem integrations with global
leaders — the layer is vendor-neutral by design and rolls out alongside the
automation, edge and fleet software already running on your site.
Roadmap · coming
Fourteen years to build it. The next five to make it the standard.
Three tracks converge into one layer — from a
component you buy to the standard every autonomous fleet is built on. Early-access
programs are open: reserve a slot and build with us.
Coming soon
Sense module + SDK
Every world model reads the layer natively — zero integration per robot.
Roadmap items are in development — dates and specifications in the data room.

Beyond the factory floor
Controlled environments. Anywhere.
Wittra creates controlled environments anywhere —
physical AI is no longer restricted to factory floors. From the manufacturing line to the
warehouse aisle, from the mine face to the airport apron, to the perimeter fence — where
the work is dark, dusty, underground or GPS-denied, the layer holds. And beyond:
construction, agriculture, commercial prop-tech and smart-city operations run on the
same layer.
A proof-of-value on your site replaces the slow, expensive
pilots typical of the category — deployed without wired infrastructure, at 70–80% lower
total cost of ownership than wired alternatives. Your site, your assets, your numbers —
and a quote shaped to your needs.
