Proof
Measured by someone else.
Most of the numbers below come from evaluations run for the U.S. Army, the Navy, DARPA, the DOT, and tier-one OEMs. Every row names the authority it was recorded for.

Accuracy
Accuracy, by site.
From production roads to denied terrain, the same software held centimeter class.
The commercial record
Nine buyers. Nine markets. One model.
Each ran the same software base in production. None required a fork.
Collision avoidance inside a working copper mine, under degraded satellite coverage.
Ten-centimeter peer positioning at municipal scale, over live 5G and CV2X.
Perception and inference work applied to cervical cytology, searching for cancer cells instead of obstacles.
Two-centimeter ground truth for the top three auto manufacturers. The ruler Detroit used to grade itself.
Software on OMFV, the Army’s Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle program of record. Tested by the Army, and paid on an Army program of record.
Direct performance on funded defense research tasking.
Ten-centimeter pedestrian and vehicle safety in a working Class 8 yard.
Trains tracked underground into New York with anchors in the stations alone.
A second mining operator, independent of BHP, on its own account. One buyer is a reference. Two is a market.

Heritage
1997 to now.
Twenty-nine years of fielded work, distilled into one model.
- 1997
NSF-funded autonomous search and rescue robots.
- 1999
The first 100-robot swarm, for the U.S. Army under DARPA. Landmine robots four times faster, with detection raised from 80 to 95 percent.
- 2002
Robots for high-radiation zones in the energy sector.
- 2007
Through 2016: GPS-denied convoy operations and assured positioning. Advanced navigation and EOD for the U.S. Army and Navy.
- 2017
Scalable micropositioning demonstrated for NYC Transit. The technology leaves the battlefield.
- 2020
Core autonomy components supporting the top three auto manufacturers and Aptiv.
- 2022
Navigation and positioning tools deployed in active rail and bus networks with NJ Transit.
- 2024
U.S. Army field testing: convoy and overwatch in mountain terrain, and positioning held under jamming at Army Futures Command.
- 2025
Rover and BORG launched: deployable autonomy and centimeter-class positioning for GPS-denied missions.
- 2026
MIM, the Motion Intelligence Model. Every earlier program, carried forward in one piece of software.
Hardware
The model, embodied.
MIM is software. These are two of its bodies.
