Motorola announces new real-time location solution

Thursday, September 25, 2008 in News

Motorola announced the addition of a real-time location solution to the Wireless Next Generation (Wi-NG) architecture for its RF Wireless Switches.

Powered by the embedded RTLS engine, the Motorola Wi-NG architecture enables accurate location determination and presence detection capabilities for Wi-Fi-based devices, Wi-Fi-based active RFID tags and passive RFID tags. The solution can be deployed by small, medium and large organizations using Motorola’s full RF Switch portfolio in both indoor and outdoor environments.


Motorola’s location solution is both RF- and tag-agnostic, and includes built-in location determination algorithms that can integrate data from third-party location engines. An industry-standard application level events interface allows developers to create location-based business applications using location data. It is capable of processing many location technologies simultaneously and delivering the data with a single XML-based interface. [end]
