Verdict
Industrial RTLS: sensor and radio hardware plus software tracking assets, forklifts, materials and people inside factories and warehouses. Licensing posture: No licensing program stated. The wildcard corporate story: the US parent became XTI Aerospace, pivoted to drones, then sold Inpixon GmbH to a German investor group for about EUR 4.64 million in February 2026.
What customers praise
The technology kept operating through repeated ownership changes, and the February 2026 sale put the business with an owner whose sole stated focus is RTLS rather than a distracted conglomerate.
What customers criticise
The corporate trail is a maze: neither site says who now holds which patents or how an outsider would license anything, which for a would-be licensee is disqualifying until the ownership question is answered in writing.
