The EdgeX Network: Uninterrupted Monitoring with the Power of a Private Network
Healthcare and many other industries have a vital need for accurate indoor tracking, but it’s been notoriously difficult to get right. You may have experienced yourself that GPS doesn’t work well inside buildings. Indoors signals are bouncing off everything: walls, furniture, even people. It’s called multi-path interference, and it makes tracking unreliable when you’re trying to pinpoint a location.
Hospitals can track critical spaces like surgical suites and compounding pharmacies in real time, monitoring temperature, humidity and pressure differential. EdgeX helps hospitals stay ahead of any issues, like having an assistant who never sleeps, keeping an eye on everything.
Get notified when items move between buildings. Receive alerts when expensive equipment changes departments. Get assistance locating the items you need with speed and efficiency.
EdgeX has overcome the common traditional real-time location hurdles: deployment costs, accuracy, and the ability to scale.
Low Deployment Costs
We install a complete network using peel and stick anchor points without any wiring. They're literally like high-tech stickers. Peel them off and stick them where you need tracking. There’s no wiring nightmares, no construction crews. It’s faster, cheaper, and way less of a headache to install. We require no assistance from your IT or facilities departments, and can set up a system in less than a day!
Super-Accuracy
EdgeX is not relying solely on signal strength, which is the least reliable signal indoors. Our network is using a time-of-flight (ToF) technology paired with off-the-shelf Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) enabled tags. Traditional ToF systems are power hogs, which makes them inefficient for indoor tracking. But our proprietary code has found a loophole to allow crazy-accurate, but super energy-efficient tracking.
Scalability
Our team's background is in cellular networks. We’ve designed the system from the ground up to handle massive numbers of tags, and can deal with complex location queries. We’ve taken the lessons from building 4G and 5G networks and applied them here.
Yes! Our sensors are battery powered and use cellular networks to send data, so there are absolutely never any wires needed, ever.
We’ve built in redundancy, so if one cellular network is down, the system can switch to another one.
Our network has multiple layers of security, including using secure cellular networks as well as strong encryption of the data so it can’t be intercepted. Each SIM card also has its own digital ID for verification.
EdgeX sensors are easy to install, so there’s not a lot of money up front for hardware and labor-intensive installations. The network is sold on a subscription Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model depending on how many locations and square footage you want to track.
Schedule a live demo with one of our experienced reps, and we’ll show you how powerful the EdgeX Network can be for you.
There’s no need for your facilities or IT teams to help install or support EdgeX. That means it’s extremely affordable to install and try out.
With anchor points, sensors and tags in place you’ll start getting deeper insights and valuable information, such as compliance data, like you’ve never had before.
