How Does RTLS Tracking Work?
RTLS forklift tracking lets you know exactly where your equipment is, where they have been, and how workers utilized them, which provides invaluable insights to reduce lost inventory and make better use of your warehouse and equipment.
Real-time forklift tracking works through a network of receivers picking up signals sent via UWB tags attached to the forklift, AVG, or any other manipulation vehicle. These signals are converted into location data in real time and within a 30 cm level of accuracy. These data points about the vehicle and its operator are sent on to the RTLS application software installed on the server, where they are interpreted and displayed in an easy-to-understand manner.
