What are beacons and sensors?

Beacons and sensors are devices that attach to assets or monitor environmental conditions in your facility. Thinaer deploys different sensor types based on tracking requirements and the data you need to collect.

Sensor Types

Location Tracking

  • BLE beacons for proximity and zone-based tracking
  • UWB devices for precision location with sub-meter accuracy
  • GPS trackers for outdoor assets
  • RFID tags for inventory and high-volume item tracking

Environmental Monitoring

  • Temperature and humidity sensors for cold chain compliance and environmental control
  • Vibration sensors for equipment health monitoring
  • Pressure sensors
  • Sound level monitors for noise compliance

Motion & Activity

  • Accelerometers for movement detection
  • Door and gate sensors for access monitoring
  • Occupancy sensors for space utilization

Asset-Specific Applications

  • Tool tracking beacons for equipment accountability
  • Work-in-process sensors for production monitoring
  • Specialized sensors for unique operational requirements

 

Sensor Configuration

Sensors can be configured to report data at different intervals based on your use case. Options range from real-time streaming for critical alerts to periodic updates for trend analysis. Battery life varies by sensor type and reporting frequency, typically lasting from months to years depending on the configuration.

For detailed specifications on available sensor types, refer to our Universe of Devices documentation or contact your Thinaer representative to discuss specific tracking and monitoring requirements.
