bluetooth asset tracking

Our new range of GPS tracking devices and IoT sensors also serve as Bluetooth® Gateways, enabling local communication with other tagged assets and mobile devices.

Applications

Automatic Inventory Management - A Bluetooth tag is attached to each item of stock. The number of tags that report to a gateway can be used to count the stock level at a location.

Monitoring Equipment Across Multiple Sites - A gateway is placed at each site. The gateway to which a tag is reporting to indicates which site the tagged asset is located.

Hire and Rental Equipment - Monitoring equipment entering/leaving the yard based upon whether it is in range of a gateway or not.

Bin Location Tracking - Knowing where bins were dropped off and by which truck. The truck will contain a gateway device, and when the tag attached to the bin is 'lost' (out of range of the gateway) - the bin has been dropped off at this location. 

Trailer Tracking - With automatic scanning of which pallets are on the trailer. A gateway device would be attached to the trailer and a BLE tag on each pallet.

how it works

  • ​The battery powered Remora2 GPS tracking device, or powered G120 tracking device both feature concurrent GPS and Bluetooth 5.0
  • Tracking devices are mounted or wired into high-value assets, or concealed onsite
  • Guppy Bluetooth Tags, Sensornode Bluetooth, or third-party tags are then placed on lower-valued assets, like pallets, stocks and tools
  • The gateway device reports a collection of information about the tag and sends to Telematics Guru or third-party tracking platforms
