Chirp Microsystems’ mission is to bring ultrasonic sensing to everyday products. A TDK-group company founded in 2013 based on pioneering research performed at the University of California, Chirp’s piezoelectric MEMS ultrasonic transducers offer long range and low power sensing capabilities in a micro-scale package, enabling products to accurately perceive absolute position in the three-dimensional world in which we live. Combined with Chirp’s embedded software library, these sensors advance user experiences with VR/AR, mobile, wearables, robotics, drones and occupancy detection.

Brands that need each of their hundreds or thousands of locations to rank high in mobile or voice searches are increasingly dependent on mastering Proximity Search Optimization (PSO). PSO requires a brand and each of its locations to take control of and optimize as many signals as possible. This includes comprehensive, up-to-date, best-in-class keyword tactics by location, consistent and accurate location data management, social media channel engagement, and review management.
MomentFeed uniquely manages and automates each and all of the local-mobile search triggers via its Unified Platform, and helps multi-location brands influence their Proximity Search Optimization to make them more visible across all local discovery channels, ultimately leading to more customers and foot traffic, and increased revenue.
When you’re on your phone, every recommendation is based on your location. We use that location to help companies with hundreds of stores manage all the marketing, advertising and customer care activities required to make each of their locations a nearby consumer’s top choice.
Retailers, banks, restaurant chains, and consumer services companies have a lot of social pages to manage – 10 to 20 or more for every single store, restaurant or showroom. Our clients have told us that using MomentFeed is like having an entire army of marketers working for them to manage marketing, advertising and customer response for every store, converting mobile consumers to become in-store customers.
