AeroScout recognizes that there is no single “right” technology for visibility – customers have complex needs that often require a combination of visibility methods for multiple uses. For example, Wi-Fi RFID is best for asset tracking across large enterprise facilities, while UWB provides high accuracy in small areas, and Passive RFID provide auto-identification of high-volume items. The value of a real-time visibility solution for the enterprise lies in finding a single platform that addresses all these needs, and applies consistent business rules across them.

AeroScout's Unified Asset Visibility solution is the only platform able to provide true enterprise visibility over a single infrastructure, combining a wide variety of information about valuable mobile assets, including location (indoor and outdoor RTLS), Auto-Identification (Active and Passive RFID), status/condition (sensors and telemetry) and others. This enables customers to choose the technology that is best for them, and to utilize multiple visibility applications all over a single unified Wi-Fi network.

AeroScout has integrated the following technologies into its solution:

• Wi-Fi RFID (Active RFID / RTLS, with multiple algorithms)
• Passive RFID
• GPS
• Ultra-Wideband (UWB)
• Choke-Point (low frequency)
