Beacon

A beacon is a small, energy-efficient device that transmits signals using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). These signals can be picked up by smartphones, scanners or IoT gateways.

In supply chain and asset tracking, beacons are commonly used to localize assets in places where GPS is unreliable, such as warehouses or indoor zones. When attached to load carriers, they provide accurate location data within specific areas, helping improve inventory control and asset visibility.

The role of beacons within our solution

Beacons are a cost-effective way to track asset movement at short range, making them ideal for indoor logistics and zone-based monitoring. They serve as a crucial component of our solution, providing continuous data flow and real-time visibility where other technologies fall short.
