Company History
Polaris assembled a team of experts in 1999 to invent a breakthrough software-based system for highly reliable, cost-effective handset location. The team includes a combination of seasoned executives and engineers that have technical expertise in signal processing, radio propagation, wireless network architecture and operations and algorithm development.

A few years later, Polaris succeeded in creating and deploying the first and only software-based Public Safety location product that meets FCC E911 Phase II requirements. Today Polaris is generating commercial revenue from wireless service providers in North America and Asia. Polaris is backed by Silicon Valley-based Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Draper Richards and Los Angeles-based Palisades Ventures and has a business model that enables the company to be self-funded as it grows.
