The Ubisense Location Platform is a suite of software components that enable location sensors and tags to be set-up, calibrated and configured into cells and objects using a simple graphical user interface (GUI).
Ubisense tag locations are sent via standard Ethernet cable or wireless LAN to the Location Engine which processes the data and passes the information via an industry-standard API to applications.
The Location Platform scales seamlessly from a laptop to a multi-CPU cluster. Exactly the same software can be run on a single machine, for software development or demos, or deployed across a cluster to support huge installations generating tens of thousands of location events per second.
The Location Platform has a service oriented architecture. All services are crash-tolerant, restart-tolerant and cluster friendly and have been proven through years of testing in large scale real-time control applications in assembly plants, transit depots and military sites where high reliability and low latency are essential.
The Location Platform includes a suite of software tools for easy system configuration and its open API covers every service feature so that anything that can be done using a tool can also be done via the API.
Software components
Location Engine ConfigurationThe Location Engine Configuration tool is used to control and monitor operation of location sensors and tags as well as to tune the location system behaviour. The tool enables:
MapThe map tool allows visualization of objects tracked using the Ubisense system. It includes two main elements:
Platform ControlPlatform Control is used to control the core services that make up the Ubisense Location Platform. The tool interacts with the core platform component of the Ubisense Domain Object Model. This core component consists of:
Security ManagerUbisense provides security and access control though the Security Manager. The Security Manager allows the definition of a security policy for the Ubisense Location Platform, to protect platform data from unauthorized access. It is designed to ensure that only authorized users are able to modify the Ubisense Location Platform state.
Service InstallerThe Service Installer is a tool that allows extra services or service upgrades to be installed into the Ubisense Location Platform. An intuitive Service Installation Wizard guides the user through the installation process. Platform services are installed from a user-defined distribution directory.
Service ManagerThe Service Manager is used to administer the distributed services that make up a Ubisense platform. The tool supports:
Site ManagerThe Ubisense Site Manager simplifies the configuration of the properties of types, objects, and building data. It gives the administrator control over objects, building models, visualization and geometry.
