WIMEA

System for the location tracking of people and equipment

WIMEA is a location tracking system designed to determine the real-time position of people or equipment. It is a versatile solution that can operate both indoors and outdoors, provided that the company has the appropriate hardware infrastructure supplied by the solution manufacturer.

Wimea's location tracking system works on the basis of Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology, a wireless data transmission with high radio bandwidth and low transmitted signal power. UWB is precise and resistant to interference. Moreover, the operation of this technology does not interfere with other typical radio communication systems that have been available on the market for years.

 

 

The area to be covered by WIMEA location system should include a dedicated hardware infrastructure - receivers installed at locations agreed with the client (Anchors) and location transmitters (Tags).

 

 

The Anchors, receiving the signal sent by the Tags, determine the precise time of receiving information and transmit it via the Internet to the main server of the system. There, the position of each Tag is determined, which will be recorded in the database and presented to the user on the facility plan

System design
 

  • Location transmitter - Tag
    • a small transmitter that periodically sends out a radio signal in the UWB standard
    • it has the form of a typical identification card, can be fitted with a standard sticker with the name or photograph of the employee
    •  it can be comfortably carried on a lanyard or in a pocket (on request, a special version of the Tag can also be prepared, designed to be permanently attached to any equipment to be located)
    • it is equipped with a motion sensor, which allows varying the frequency at which location signals are sent
    • it is powered by two small batteries (sufficient to send more than 1.5 million location signals, which with typical use lasts about six months)

System design
 

  • Receiver - Anchor
    • it is used to receive the UWB signal
    • its position is invariable and defined during the installation of the system, in agreement with the customer
    •  requires connection to an external power supply (this may be any voltage source within the range 7.5..75V)
    • it is equipped with a Wi-Fi interface to transmit all received information to the calculation centre
    • in order to accurately determine the position of the Tag, its signal must be correctly received by at least three Anchors

Management Application
 

The WIMEA system application is a software for presenting Tag positions based on the data sent by the Anchors. It is located on the server of ENTE, the developer of the system. It can be used on any device (computer, tablet, phone) that has access to the internet and has a WWW browser installed. For very complex projects, it is possible to install the application on a local server located at the customer's premises.

 

Each customer receives an administration account to manage their part of the system, inlcuding:

  • add new Anchors and Tags, change their parameters and descriptions,
  • add and modify building plans,
  • create user accounts for the employees,
  • view the location of Tags or receive notifications from the system.

 

The application allows creating reports about the presence of Tags in specific areas. It is also possible to recreate the history of Tag's location and generate the so-called heat map, which is a map illustrating the locations where the Tag has been most frequently present.
