UWB Enterprise Factory Positioning System
A real-time factory location system based on UWB ultra-wideband technology, locating people, materials and equipment on the shop floor with 10-30 cm accuracy. It covers real-time monitoring, track replay and geofence alerts in one platform, and integrates seamlessly with MES, access control and video surveillance through standard APIs.

Four blind spots on the factory floor
Materials, equipment and people are always moving, yet managers often can't see them, find them or control them.
Finding items means shouting for someone
Materials, equipment and cranes are scattered around the workshop with no visibility, so finding one item means running across the floor — slow and error-prone.
Safety relies on self-discipline
Hazardous and restricted areas are watched by people; intrusions go unnoticed and accountability comes only after an accident.
Records are done by hand
Tracks, dwell times and entry/exit records are logged by hand — inaccurate, hard to trace and difficult to assign responsibility for.
Systems each doing their own thing
Location data can't connect to MES, access control or video surveillance, creating information silos and making coordinated response impossible.
Six modules covering the entire positioning chain
From signal capture to business integration, one system handles real-time workshop location management.
Real-time Location Tracking
Load CAD drawings and floor plans with adjustable 1-10 Hz refresh, smooth position correction and at-a-glance tag online/offline status.
Historical Track Replay
Query tracks for any time range, play, pause or replay at variable speed, with automatic stay-point marking and monthly archiving.
Ranging and point calibration
Map distance measurement, area calculation, and visual anchor coordinate calibration with one-click correction and real-time accuracy error display.
Geofence Alerts
Define circular, rectangular or polygonal geofences flexibly with automatic entry/exit alerts pushed via flashing lights, sound, pop-ups and SMS.
API integration
Standard HTTP/API protocols output coordinate data to MES, access control and video surveillance, with tiered permissions and replay-attack protection.
Three-layer system architecture
Perception layer (anchors + tags) · Transport layer (PoE switches + gateways) · Solver layer (location engine), with a stable, reliable star topology.
Three core screens for real-time visibility into the workshop
Real-time monitoring, track replay and geofencing with intuitive operation and clear status.
CAD drawing loading, 1-10 Hz refresh and smooth position correction, with online/offline status at a glance.
Query any time range, play back at variable speed, with automatic dwell-point marking and monthly track archiving.

Restricted area entered — respond immediately
Circular, rectangular and polygonal geofences with automatic entry/exit alerts pushed via flashing lights, sound, pop-ups and SMS.
Three-layer architecture with a stable, reliable star topology
Sensing → transmission → solving, with clear layers for data and control flows.
Perception layer
UWB anchors (fixed, known coordinates) plus UWB tags (the objects being tracked). Available in magnetic, card and fixed form factors, with flashing lights, audible alerts and battery indicators.
Transport layer
PoE switches plus gateways handle power, time synchronization and raw timestamp data transmission, with each anchor connected independently rather than in a cascade.
Solver / platform layer
The location engine server receives timestamps and uses TWR-TOF two-way ranging to solve 2D coordinates, outputting real-time positions and tracks.
