What’s the best way to locate and track products and personnel?

While GPS is ubiquitous for outdoor location, it falls short inside buildings. Older real-time location systems (RTLS) are often inaccurate and unscalable. A revolution in location is needed, and the WISER Locator system has answered the call to fix these shortcomings.

The WISER UWB RTLS Locator Indoor Positioning System

WISER’s patented Redundant Radio Localization and Tracking (RRLT) technology delivers immediate, live asset visibility and tracking for real-world environments. WISER’s Locator system can be used to track work in progress in cellular or linear manufacturing, automate inventory, eliminate manual scanning and searching, enhance security, ensure safety, prevent loss, and streamline operations, among many other uses.

Ultra-wideband (UWB) Antenna Nodes and Tracker Tags signal to one another to establish a wireless mesh. WISER’s tracking software calculates inch-level tag coordinates from these signals and overlays live, real-time asset locations on a site map or floor plan, continuously and autonomously locating any in-mesh asset affixed with a WISER tag. Real-time data can also be integrated into software systems using WISER’s API or into virtually any database using WISER’s direct-to-database linkup feature.

The Benefits

  • Locate key materials around the clock, reliably, typically with inches-accurate location data.

  • Automate your inventory with immediate visibility of all key assets, indoors or outdoors.

  • Track accurately in office environments, healthcare settings or manufacturing and warehouse facilities.

  • Eliminate manual scanning, searching, status updates, and other error-prone processes.

  • Track assets for years at a time, thanks to low power requirements and long,

    configurable battery life.

  • Reduce installation costs with plug-and-play deployment, auto-calibration,

    and continuous location even through walls and obstacles.

  • Operate in concert with existing asset tracking systems like barcodes or RFID.

  • Scale your tracking project for nearly any number of tagged assets or size of setting.

  • Easily connects to third party dashboards for industry specific visualization or data analysis, such as safety and occupancy location, and time and motion studies.


It’s very, very impressive. This is really going to help businesses get back to operate in a way that they’re used to, and...can keep people as safe as possible.

Our Security Promise

The WISER Locator safeguards location data and protects personal privacy while delivering high-value, high-precision location insights simultaneously. Read how WISER preserves your privacy.


General System Features

  • Delivers sub-meter and often centimeter-level precision.

  • Locates and tracks accurately in complex, reflective and metal-filled environments.

  • No line of sight needed. Operational range extends above 50 meters line-of-sight and 20-40 meters even through multiple interior walls, firewalls, or other obstacles.

  • Calibrates autonomously in a matter of moments.

  • Scales modularly to nearly any size, configuration or number of assets.

  • Allows cloud-based or on-premise solutions.

  • Can operate inside or outside firewalls for added security.

  • Operates 24-7 without the need for WiFi, Cellular, or GPS coverage.

  • IC compliant with IEEE802.15.4-2011.

  • FCC and ISED (IC), certified.


Antennas

Antenna Nodes are positioned to establish the tracking perimeter and wireless mesh. These antennas provide location data by triangulating signals from tags within the mesh. They can also be tracked as high-update rate tags.

  • Node dimensions: 6” x 2” x 1”

  • Node weight: 40-45 grams

  • Antennas can be powered via USB port, battery, wall outlet, or PoE

  • 110 milliamp current

  • 5-volt power draw

  • Operates indoors and out

  • Easy installation and adjustment

  • Antennas can also be set to tracker-mode, doubling as high update-rate tags

Tags

Tracker Tags are small devices that ping at programmable frequencies, allowing the system to calculate location. Tags can be attached to nearly any type of physical asset to provide real-time updates on the asset’s status and location.

Tag dimensions: 1" x 1.5"

  • Programmable ping rates up to 8 Hz

  • Tags enter power-saving sleep mode when motionless, lengthening battery life exponentially

  • Two-way data transmission capability provides status updates in real time even for tags in sleep mode

  • Data transfer rates up to 6.8 Mbps

  • Operates at ultra-low power (microwatts) for extra-long battery life

  • Operates on replaceable coin cell batteries

  • Battery life programmable from 1-10 years

  • Sends real-time power updates, alerting user before a battery fails and needs replacement

  • Laser engraved for permanent identification


Tag and Track Software Features

WISER’s user-friendly Tag and Track software translates hardware data into centimeter-level coordinates. WISER’s GUI overlays these coordinates on a site map or floorplan, making actionable data accessible on a computer or mobile device. Using WISER’s API and database linkup, location data can also be integrated into site-specific management, operational, and enterprise-level software systems or directly into a database.

  • Delivers immediate asset visibility

  • In-software calibration process eliminates need for manual measurements of device locations, allowing ultra-fast, low-cost deployment

  • Self-corrects for unplanned movement of antenna infrastructure while the system is operating

  • Allows asset naming, labels, and searches

  • Enables users to create zones / geofences at any point on a site map or floorplan

  • GPS-staking features translate in-mesh coordinate data into latitude / longitude

  • Displays tracking histories with playback options up to x64 speed

  • API enables direct integration into other software systems

  • Database linkup feature allows direct connection to virtually any database

  • System Requirements:

    • OS: Windows (Vista or newer, server 2008 or newer, 64 bit)

    • System memory: 1 GB

    • Processor speed: 2.0 Ghz

    • Processor type: x86-64, dual core (minimum)

    • Storage: 1 GB

  • Mobile and web-based applications
