UWB navigation
Ultra-wideband positioning (UWB-positioning) is one of the latest technologies for determining indoor positioning. Navigation accuracy is up to 0.5 meters. Ultra-Wideband (UWB) is a wireless communication protocol that uses electromagnetic radiation at high frequencies with a wide bandwidth. This allows you to transfer large amounts of data, consuming little energy.Deploying a navigation solution based on Ultra-Wideband positioning is now expensive, but provides high accuracy in tracking movements in the building.
Basically, UWB tracking is used to track tangible assets, access to hazardous areas in the enterprise and control the execution of work processes in the field. Contributes to increased security.
In sports, UWB navigation allows you to track players on the field, control the location of exhibits in museums and exhibitions, and find goods on shelves faster in warehouses.
The graph clearly shows the frequency range of UWB in comparison with other positioning technologies. Due to the narrow frequency band, most of the traditional solutions for indoor navigation are affected by various third-party interference and obstacles in the form of a large crowd of people in the room, the presence of partitions and columns, reducing data transmission speed and accuracy. Positioning methods using UWB technology can provide accurate tracking of the indoor position in real time and can be used in such areas as: navigation for blind and visually impaired people, tool tracking in production, search for victims and the source of danger by emergency services, and more. UWB positioning methods provide the most accurate assessment of the location in the premises (from 0.1 to 0.5 meters). Thus, UWB positioning can be considered one of the most suitable options for mission-critical tracking solutions that require high-precision results.
The deployment of a solution based on Ultra WideBand technology can be carried out by trained specialists in a very short time. First of all, a specialist creates a map of the room in which navigation needs to be organized in the INP platform editor.
Users are given specialized UWB tags or a mobile application is installed on their device with UWB support. Ultra-Wide-Band tags have different form factors (badge, wristband, helmet tag, etc.) and functionality (feedback button or call for help, determining the user's fall, collecting temperature information, etc.). pressure). Depending on the solution of the necessary tasks, the most suitable beacons are selected.

Подробнее...It is a high-precision positioning base station based on UWB technology. The white curved surface design can be perfectly integrated with the indoor environment, and the unique waterproof structure also has the same outdoor performance. The POE power supply reduces the location of the power cord and reduces the complexity of the design.
A badge transmitter is an identification card that can be used in the system for tracking personnel. It integrates an ultra wide range to achieve a high accuracy of 10 cm indoors. And also, the SOS button can be ideally used for security monitoring.
The watch has a built-in accelerometer that can intelligently switch the positioning frequency between moving and stationary to achieve lower power consumption. In addition, the watch is equipped with a heart rate sensor to periodically return the pulse data of the monitored personnel. At the same time, the watch has an SOS function, which makes it ideal for positioning personnel in a home for the elderly, on a construction site, in factories, mines, hospitals and other security surveillance cases.
