Watch this detailed discussion into the challenges and opportunities in front of indoor location services systems and how to tap into their potential to generate intelligence that fuels much-needed operational efficiencies in manufacturing, logistics, retail, office, and more.
The on-demand webinar examines:
- The portfolio of positioning methods Bluetooth technology offers, from current RSSI and direction finding techniques to future methods that will continue to add layers of accuracy, including distance measurement
- How solution providers are implementing flexible positioning systems capable of providing general proximity to precise positioning, allowing building managers and owners to scale solutions to satisfy multiple use cases and match the varying and changing needs of the building
- The latest trends driving growth in indoor location services implementations, as well as predictions for expansion into future use cases
- Real case studies demonstrating the flexibility of Bluetooth technology as a positioning radio, including examples of the technology being used to achieve centimeter-level accuracy and meet strict reliability requirements

Disruption of global supply chains, increasing focus on health and safety, and the need for more efficient use of scarce resources have further heightened interest in high-accuracy indoor location services applications capable of improving processes and logistics management. Real-time locating system (RTLS) solutions used for tracking assets and people, indoor positioning systems (IPS) that overcome indoor coverage challenges of GPS to make navigating complex facilities easier, and next-generation access control systems are helping address challenges in real-time and collecting valuable data to help unlock additional business benefits and opportunities.
At the heart of many of these positioning solutions is Bluetooth® technology. Recent forecasts predict that 568 million Bluetooth location services devices will ship annually by 2026. Despite the growing adoption of Bluetooth technology in positioning solutions, lingering misperceptions remain about the suitability of the technology and its ability to satisfy the full range of location systems. Can Bluetooth technology achieve centimeter-level precision? Can it operate reliably in noisy, industrial environments? In addition, there are other radios to consider. How does Bluetooth technology stack up in comparison to other underlying positioning technologies?
Broadcom’s Gabriel Desjardins and Quuppa’s Fabio Belloni will join the Bluetooth SIG’s Chuck Sabin along with Andrew Zignani, Research Director with ABI Research’s Strategic Technologies, to tackle these questions and more.
