Indoor/Outdoor Integrated Positioning
BLE beacons indoors, GPS outdoors, all on one map
Privacy-Focused AI Computing
AI runs on campus compute; data never leaves the campus
Easy to Deploy & Maintain
Kilometre-range links mean little indoor wiring
Scenario details
Three core capabilities of campus safety: indoor-outdoor positioning, instant silent SOS alerts, and edge AI video security.
Indoor-Outdoor Tracking
Pain Points & Challenges
Legacy positioning systems suffer from high hardware costs, short battery life requiring frequent recharging, and fragmented indoor/outdoor silos, making seamless cross-domain personnel tracking difficult.
Edge AI Solution
Deploy long-battery-life fusion tracking tags combining GNSS, indoor BLE beacons, and Wi-Fi sniffing, backed by long-range wireless gateways to bridge indoor/outdoor blind spots and reduce operational upkeep.
Core Advantages
- Room-Level Precision: BLE beacon triangulation enables reliable room-level entry detection
- Seamless Roaming: Smoothly transitions to outdoor GNSS on a single unified map
- Ultra-Slim Badge: Card tracker fits lanyards comfortably with magnetic recharge
Room-Level Positioning
Low-power BLE beacons provide room-level positioning within 3 metres in classroom buildings, dormitories, and underground garages.
Outdoor Zone Geofencing
Outdoor tracking switches to GNSS, with geofence alerts for boundary crossings and live personnel distribution.
Slim Wearable Tracking Badge
Staff and at-risk personnel wear a slim badge with long battery life and seamless indoor/outdoor switching.
Campus-level BLE Beacon Positioning System
Ready to deployDouble-Press SOS Reporting
Pain Points & Challenges
During sudden campus emergencies, fragmented reporting channels and lack of real-time coordinate tracking delay security response, missing critical intervention windows.
Edge AI Solution
Personnel carry smart safety badges; double-pressing a physical button transmits an instant, silent alarm with live coordinates over a dedicated long-range network to the central command dashboard.
Core Advantages
- Blind Trigger: Double-click large physical button triggers instant silent distress
- Dedicated Wireless: LoRaWAN private link punches through thick walls and dead zones
- Location Tied: Alarm packet bundles precise coordinates for immediate dispatch
Silent Double-Press SOS
Staff can double-press the physical badge button by touch to silently report their location to the command centre within seconds.
Long-Range Private-Network Alerts
A long-range LoRaWAN network reaches through building blind spots and delivers alerts via local gateways without public internet.
Immediate Location-Linked Response
The alarm immediately shows the person’s live map location and nearby camera view so security staff can respond.
Campus-level BLE Beacon Positioning System
Ready to deployAI Anomaly Detection
Pain Points & Challenges
Traditional manual video surveillance is inefficient, prone to missing events, and has high labor costs. It struggles to provide 24/7 real-time detection and alerts for anomalies like intrusions, falls, or fires, resulting in slow emergency response.
Edge AI Solution
Edge AI models analyze video streams for behavior recognition, detecting intrusions, loitering, falls, or fires in milliseconds and automatically triggering security system integrations.
Core Advantages
- Low Retrofit Cost: Pulls existing RTSP streams directly with zero camera replacement
- Edge Privacy: On-premise inference and recording keeps video strictly within campus
- Direct Alarm Closure: Onboard relays trigger field sirens and strobe lights in milliseconds
Rapid Weapon Detection
Edge AI connects to existing cameras, detects weapon-related activity locally, and triggers access locks to block harm.
Real-Time Perimeter Breach Alerts
Geofenced walls and restricted zones trigger audible and visual deterrence and save snapshots when crossed.
Privacy-Preserving Corridor Fall Detection
Temporal pose analysis detects falls accurately and sends alerts without transmitting raw video, protecting privacy.
Intrusion and Line-Crossing Alerts
Ready to deployDeployment & Hardware Selection
Deploy BLE beacons indoors, LoRaWAN gateways for backhaul, and edge AI compute in the control room.

Success Cases
FAQ
The solution is restrained on privacy: badges report only zone-level location and double-press SOS events — no audio, no filming. Data stays on the campus's own network, kept entirely on the school's or company's platform with no third-party cloud involved. Pair rollout with a clear informed-notice process: a safety device that acts only in emergencies.
The two event types differ. Double-press SOS alarms are human-triggered, so false alarms are not inherent. AI video detection (e.g. weapon or intrusion recognition) analyzes locally in real time, with false positives controlled via detection zones, confidence thresholds, and review workflows. Models keep tuning on on-site samples, so false alarms decline over time; early on, keep human review and feed false positives back as labeled data.
The solution provides complete API interfaces: positioning, alarms, and AI events can all be pushed via standard interfaces to your existing security platform or dispatch system, linking door control, broadcast, and screens. No rip-and-replace — it adds a personnel-positioning + active-alarm layer on top of your current security stack.
The cost structure is clear and easy to estimate: personnel badges per headcount; indoor Bluetooth beacons per room/zone that needs positioning (battery-powered, wiring-free, low install cost); LoRaWAN gateways with kilometer coverage — one or two per campus; plus platform-integration services. Finer positioning granularity means more beacons, and key areas can be phased in first.
Yes. The Seeed devices used in this solution can be customized with your own logo, enclosure, packaging and pre-loaded firmware, and existing models can be adapted to add or drop interfaces and features. See Customization Service for scope and process, or .
