StealthNetwork Communications® has announced the launch of StealthMatrix, a next generation sensory-based, item-level tracking system that locates merchandise in a department store or warehouse within one foot, using IoT sensor technology and 2D mapping. Already destined for a major national retailer, it bridges the gap between retail stores and omni-channel e-commerce operations.

StealthMatrix ARC™ is compatible with Android and Apple (iOS) smartphones for use by customers, sales associates and store operations. The product suite includes an
all-encompassing IoT sensor device with indoor location application software and way-finding capabilities, to pinpoint the exact location of each individual piece of merchandise.

Using augmented reality to guide sales, store operations and customers, StealthMatrix is unique in that it does not require additional IoT sensors, or specially installed hardware, creating low entry and operating costs. It will enhance the customer experience while eliminating lost sales precipitated by a customer’s inability to find that “special pair of jeans” that may be somewhere in a store, but not in its proper place. StealthMatrix provides retailers the opportunity to reorient and maximize their retail space into local fulfillment centers.
