Solution details
Ubudu Hybrid RTLS is a complete system that includes hardware, software and tools to track the real-time location of assets, create geofences and analyse operational flows.
Hardware
Ubudu hardware includes a wide range of Hybrid Tags, Anchors and Gateways with different form factors, technologies and features in order to address different customer needs in any type of environment. Ubudu RTLS is also compatible with Third-Party Hardware as it uses standard radio protocols (BLE, UWB, LoRa, Wi-Fi).
Tags
Small low-power transmitters attached to assets to be tracked with a battery autonomy of several years.
Anchors & Gateways
Fixed devices exchanging radio signals with tags and sending back data to the software on the server.
Software
Ubudu software computes real-time positions of tags and displays them on a map, triggers geofence alerts and records data to be accessed through an Analytics Dashboard for further insights.
Location Engine
Software to compute real-time positions based on data collected and to manage infrastructure.
RTLS Applications
Software for end-user applications: asset search, real-time positions and alerts, replay trajectories and analytics dashboard (API available)
Technologies
Ubudu Hybrid RTLS leverages different radio technologies (UWB, BLE, LoRa, Wi-Fi) using the same software to address different use cases in different environments at the lowest costs.
Powerful back-end tools are used to ensure solution scalability with minimal maintenance.
RTLS Technologies and technical architectures
Leveraging different radio technologies, Ubudu RTLS is flexible to be used for different use cases using the same centralised software.
Back end tools
Ubudu RTLS is able to compute positions simultaneously with different technologies as well as to be used at scale with automatic workload orchestration and supervision alerts.

What they say about us
Ubudu's RTLS solution provides beneficial functionality through a combination of technologies and a platform that simplifies data analysis. Thank you to the technical and sales teams for their responsiveness and efficiency.
We are proud to be working hand in hand with renowned tech company Ubudu in bringing SDA+ and RTLS into the SM4RT TRACE suite of solutions. Thanks to Ubudu’s expertise and experience with the technology itself, we are able to make Malaysian offices, factories and warehouses safer and more efficient.
Ubudu hybrid RTLS platform provides us the necessary flexibility to go-to-market and address different customers’ needs with competitive offerings. With its out-of-the-box applications and tools, the solution is easy to deploy and customer onboarding is smooth.
Ubudu has enabled us to secure pedestrian movements in our sorting centres in a simple, quick and large-scale way. This solution is more easily adopted by our employees, unlike the more expensive and limited solutions we had previously deployed.
The collaboration with Ubudu has been effective and together we work toward excellence in every aspect of project delivery.
A simple solution to make operators aware of the areas of interaction with the machines.
Any physical object with a certain size can be tracked using Ubudu Hybrid RTLS. For example, you can track tools, equipment and machines in factories, or stretchers, beds and pumps in hospitals.
The different technical architectures proposed by Ubudu allows to find a suitable solution for all kinds of environments and use cases. Feel free to contact us in order to receive recommendation on which technical architecture to use based on your environment and use case.
Using UWB, the distance measurement between devices is of 10cm, and the positions of a tag is 30cm.
With BLE, the accuracy is between 2-5m depending on the environment.
Ubudu also leverages other sensors such as accelerometer to improve the accuracy of the positions calculated.
The update frequency is configurable and depends on the technology chosen. For example, with UWB, the positions can be updated every 100ms at best whereas with BLE, the positions can be updated every second at best.
To reduce battery consumption, Ubudu tags can have a different advertising frequency when in movement and when idle.
