Navigation Products

In the past, two products were shown in prototype development. One was a type of navigation system using cameras and a processor based on a beacon and an Io Tiny. Also a Lidar system was also being worked on. Has any progress been made in their development? I am just asking as to the viability of these concepts. Dj, go easy on me. Ron
