Campus & Hospital Personnel Real-Time Location System (UWB RTLS)

This solution is primarily designed for staff and critical responders. In some projects, temporary tags are also issued to contractors or high-risk visitors, but we avoid tracking the general public unless there is a clear safety or process requirement. Patient tracking is possible from a technology standpoint, yet usually requires a separate clinical and privacy review.

UWB RTLS operates in a different frequency band from hospital Wi‑Fi and medical Bluetooth devices. Anchors and tags are certified for electromagnetic compatibility, and the RF design is validated during pilot deployment. We always work with your biomedical and IT teams to review equipment lists and RF policies before installation.

Access to RTLS dashboards and reports is controlled through roles. For example, ward managers can see their staff, security can see all active alarms, and system administrators manage configuration. Detailed tracks can be restricted to authorised users and limited to defined retention periods to comply with local privacy rules.

Yes. Many hospitals start with one wing or a single use case, such as ED staff or security officers, and then expand to wards, labs and campus services as the benefits become clear. The anchor infrastructure and server platform are designed to scale to additional tags and buildings without changing the basic architecture.

For most hospital campuses, outdoor UWB coverage from anchors or wireless beacons is sufficient. In very large open areas, hybrid GPS/UWB badges can be used to provide coarse positioning outside the main coverage, while still using UWB for precise indoor location near buildings.
