What This Solution Does
Where did that forklift go? Is the equipment still in the warehouse? Are workers at their stations? Traditional solutions are either expensive or require complex wiring. This solution uses battery-powered positioning tags and long-range wireless transmission to show you real-time locations of people and assets on your computer or phone.

What You Need to Know
Detection Precision
- Precise positioning: 1-3 meters, requires 3+ positioning tags per zone, shows movement trajectory
- Zone-level: 1 tag per room, shows "which room" only
Installation Notes
- Mount positioning tags at 2.5-3 meter height
- Space tags 10-15 meters apart
- Add extra tags in areas with metal shelving
Battery Life
Positioning tag batteries last over 2 years, typically up to 3 years
Node Capacity
100-200 trackers can connect in the same range (depends on LoRaWAN gateway)
Output Interfaces
Open-source, integrates with third-party LoRaWAN services (ChirpStack, TTN, etc.)
