Paul Yost founded YOST Labs in 2012 (dba then as YEI Technology) in historic Portsmouth Ohio. Paul set about solving the difficult technical challenge of combining outputs from multiple inertial sensors (accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers) to determine absolute orientation of an object – a necessary capability for numerous market applications. The resulting 3-Space sensor product line quickly became an acknowledged leader in the nascent low-cost inertial sensor and motion capture markets. YOST Lab’s innovation has been recognized with numerous patent awards with additional patent applications pending. Current customers include technology industry leaders such as Apple, Google, VW, SRI, Oculus, Siemens, Nissan, Lockheed Martin, and the US Navy. The company maintains an in-house low-volume circuit board production line used for prototyping and rapid iterative development of sensor products for our go-to-market partners. Large-scale circuit-board manufacturing is done at facilities in Dayton Ohio
