Frequently Asked Questions

Here You'll Find answers to the Most Frequently Asked Questions about KINEXON Asset Tracking

What is KINEXON RTLS Mesh?

KINEXON RTLS Mesh is a unique object localization system combining ultra-wideband (UWB) technology, and Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technologies. It allows companies to track and optimize the movement of physical shopfloor assets. The system requires minimal infrastructure and offers easy scalability.

KINEXON RTLS Mesh anchors and tags are quickly installed, and gateways transmit data to the KINEXON OS platform via a VPN connection for position generation and visualization. Additionally, KINEXON RTLS Mesh can function as a standalone network with no interference from other data transmission technologies.

How can I use my existing RFID infrastructure for asset tracking?

KINEXON OS is designed to optimize the performance of your current RFID readers and tags, significantly enhancing production order tracking and process management without requiring additional hardware investments. It offers features such as order tracking and tracing, automated workflow capabilities, and real-time analytics.

How quickly can Asset Tracking be implemented?

A fully autonomous tracking system consists of the battery-powered KINEXON RTLS Mesh hardware and the open and high-performant KINEXON OS software. Due to the simplicity of hardware installation and cloud-based software set up, short installation cycles of two to six weeks can be achieved.

To get started with Asset Tracking, there is no need to integrate with existing networks when transmitting position data via LTE. There is a cellular reception for transmission of measurement data to the backend  and the access to KINEXON OS via mobile devices or terminals using a Chrome browser is validated.

How many KINEXON Mesh anchors are required?

The specific production environment has an influence on the accuracy as well as on the number of anchors. Generally, anchors are arranged in a rough grid every 10-20 meters. Based on our project experience, you should calculate with six to nine anchors for 1000sqm. This can vary individually for each customer.

Why KINEXON's Asset Tracking the leading tracing solution?

Get real-time insights on the location and status of assets and materials - indoors and outdoors. All available tracking technologies, such as RFID, GPS, BLE, UWB are integrated to create a seamless tracking experience. For industrial applications the ultra-wideband (UWB) technology utilized by KINEXON RTLS Mesh is ideal for applications that require high-precision location.
