Skyhook’s Precision Location software uses Wi-Fi, and Cellular signals either independently or alongside GPS as part of a hybrid solution, to accurately locate any device, indoors or outdoors, worldwide. Multiple integration options and proprietary technology make it easy to enable location-based functions and services without draining mobile phone battery life or driving up device costs.
Skyhook integration options include customizable SDKs, firmware, cloud APIs, and embedded solutions. This level of flexibility means location can be integrated at the hardware, chipset, or operating system level, and has helped establish Skyhook as a leading independent location provider with drop-in solutions for devices running alternative operating systems and custom versions of Android.
Phones built for high functionality on limited hardware often leverage non-traditional operating systems. Skyhook provides location for devices running KaiOS and other operating systems, allowing them to enable location-based features through a single all-in-one solution.
