The
Challenge
Most indoor localization systems require both custom-mounted hardware to cover a certain area, as well as mobile receivers, or tags. Cost increases with the area of the monitored location and the number of monitored parts – our customer was looking for a cost-efficient solution for this
The
Solution
After testing several wireless positioning technologies including BLE, Wi-Fi, and UWB, the Wi-Fi fingerprint positioning system was found to be the best trade-off between precision, robustness and cost. The solution can be located within a few meters of accuracy while having no need to deploy a complete radio infrastructure to power the system.
The
Impact
Tracking small individual components in a factory – without introducing significant cost that scales with the size of the manufacturing plant and scope of the tracking needed.
