About EYECAN
Self-driving for people — with no equipment investment
The problem: getting lost in complex spaces
GPS does not work indoors, so visitors get lost and the experience suffers.
Wi-Fi or beacon solutions demand heavy upfront investment and continuous maintenance.
Hardware-dependent indoor positioning is a thing of the past
The traditional ways of solving the "getting lost" problem — Wi-Fi positioning and beacon installation — have run into major barriers to deployment.
High initial construction cost and
hardware investment
Continuous maintenance work and
troublesome battery replacement
Unstable positioning accuracy
caused by radio interference
The solution: replace hardware with software
EYECAN uses the smartphone camera and 3D map data to build a precise navigation layer.
No extra hardware is required, which cuts both investment and maintenance costs.
Applying robot "autonomous mobility" technology to people
EYECAN is more than a map app.
We have applied what we learned about autonomous mobility from robot control to people.
Users simply walk along the AR guidance shown on screen.
Like a programmed robot, it gets them to the destination with no room for hesitation.

Three-layer architecture: software replaces infrastructure
Benefit 01: major cost reduction by eliminating equipment investment and initial construction costs entirely
It removes the single biggest upfront barrier to deployment.
No physical equipment needs to be installed at all,
which greatly reduces initial construction costs and post-deployment hardware maintenance.
With just a smart device you can build a navigation environment without touching the building.
Benefit 02: ultra-high accuracy within 1–3m and 3D navigation that never leaves you confused
Even in GPS-blocked environments we achieve extremely high accuracy, with automatic positioning accurate to within just 1–3 metres.
It can identify the exact floor — something conventional navigation apps cannot do —
and guides visitors reliably along a seamless 3D route through lifts and escalators.
Benefit 03: a standalone, secure design that does not touch your existing network
Positioning uses a system design that is completely independent of the internal Wi-Fi environment.
That makes it safe to deploy even in office buildings, research facilities and factories with very strict security policies.
You can roll it out safely without straining your existing network infrastructure or risking information leakage.
Key benefits: zero cost, high accuracy, fully standalone
Zero cost
No hardware required, which minimises upfront investment.
High accuracy
Positioning accurate to 1–3m, with multi-floor navigation support.
Standalone
No dependency on Wi-Fi, so it runs reliably in any environment.
Compared with GPS/Wi-Fi solutions
| Criterion | EYECAN | Conventional GPS/Wi-Fi solutions |
|---|---|---|
| Environment | Indoors (no equipment needed) | Outdoors (GPS-dependent) / indoors (Wi-Fi required) |
| Accuracy | 1–3m (high accuracy) | Tens of metres (unstable) |
| Handling of elevation | Distinguishes floors and staircases | Limited ability to distinguish elevation |
| Network environment | No Wi-Fi dependency | Wi-Fi dependent |
Next-generation infrastructure that removes three points of friction
EYECAN is not just a convenience tool for end users.
It cuts wasted facility investment, maximises the value of the visitor experience, and reduces security risk for IT administrators.
One platform that resolves the challenges of every stakeholder at once.
Application scenarios
Shopping malls
Guide visitors to the store they want and take load off the information desk.
