Description
Summary:Indoor asset tracking is generally achieved with the help of UWB, optical, Infrared, Zigbee, Bluetooth and other RF Wireless Modules. The ability of these modules to effectively communicate with their peer devices by forming a network has made these devices suitable for Real-time Locating Systems (RTLS). Human and object tracking has become essential in the past few years in many industries, housing and public places. Real-time locating systems (RTLS) are used to automatically identify and track the location of objects or people in real time, usually within a building or other contained area.
