Skyhook’s Core Engine can easily provide location-awareness to any Wi-Fi enabled device. Its portable architecture delivers location while minimizing device-specific implementation time. The Core Engine client is an entirely software-only location system and does not require specialized hardware chipsets. The lightweight client can be configured to run across a broad range of mobile operating systems, devices and platforms.

For those platforms outside of our current SDK support library, Skyhook has extracted the OS specific components into a portable C++ engine containing common functions. The Core Engine contains the fundamental components so device makers need only develop platform specific interfaces. This model gives device makers and manufacturers the flexibility to deploy the Core Engine on a broad range of mobile devices without sacrificing performance, capabilities, or maintainability.
