Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is a wireless technology designed to exchange short signals while using relatively little power. In industrial applications, a BLE Tracking System uses tags that broadcast signals detected by compatible gateways or locators. A software platform processes this information to estimate the location of tagged assets or people. BLE RSSI uses signal strength for proximity or zone-level visibility, while BLE Angle of Arrival (AoA) uses antenna arrays to estimate signal direction for more precise positioning. These capabilities support equipment tracking, WIP visibility, and locating mobile resources in industrial facilities. Results depend on infrastructure and site conditions.
Manufacturing plants and warehouses rely on equipment such as forklifts, tools, trolleys, and other mobile assets to keep daily operations running smoothly. When these resources are difficult to locate, employees waste time searching, workstations may experience delays, and equipment can…
