A Unique Platform for Precise Real-time Location
A break-through in the application of a radio frequency (RF) technology
called ultra-wideband (UWB) has enabled Ubisense to build a revolutionary
real-time location system (RTLS) which delivers very high positional
accuracy in traditionally challenging environments at reliability levels
unachievable by legacy technologies such as conventional RFID or WiFi.
The 15cm 3D positional accuracy in real-time delivered by the Ubisense
system is enabling a number of new applications including:
- Precision device location in space and time, for example to
associate the data from a bar code scanner with its location in a
warehouse
- Providing the location of a pallet of goods placed in a warehouse by
a fork-lift truck by associating the precise location of the truck´s
fork with the pallet or shipment ID at the time of placement
- Automatic context sensitive proximity detection between objects,
for example to select the correct program to drive an automatic
tool based on its proximity to a car of a particular type and model
without any manual input
- Identification and location of cars in finishing bays during final
quality assurance
- Determining if during an emergency procedure employees have all
reached designated mustering areas or indeed if there is a "man
down" requiring assistance
The Ubisense system is enabling rapid return on investment, often in less
than 12 months, because the data generated provides a level of transparency
in complex processes which cannot be achieved intuitively or visually.
When embedded in production processes, the Ubisense system provides
location aware support to workers, reducing defects caused by human error
and cutting down the time needed to execute a particular task. This in turn
leads to improvements in quality and production costs.
