RTLS (Real-Time Location System)

Real-Time Location System

Technology that continuously determines the location of tagged assets, vehicles or people within a facility.

Examples

  1. 01An RTLS tracks 60 forklifts in the warehouse and shows their position on a live map.
  2. 02Before go-live, the team defines who can see RTLS data and how it is used, together with the works council.
  3. 03RTLS data shows long empty runs, so the team redesigns forklift routes and cuts travel by 20 %.
