Protecting Hotel Staff with Indoor Location – Panic Button Solution
Hotel employees are exposed to dangerous situations. In some US states, a law has been introduced that imposes the implementation of technical solutions that allow for locating an employee quickly in case of an emergency. The idea is to introduce ‘panic buttons’ carried by hotel staff. When the safety button is pushed, a system enables real-time location of the person in danger.
IoT Signals: a comprehensive IoT research study

Now is the moment to reimagine the store experience
An intelligent store is not the store of the future. It is the store of tomorrow, the store of next week, or the store of next month: The intelligent store offers a reimagined experience where retailers are afforded the opportunity to be as multi-faceted as shoppers themselves, serving up capabilities that meet these constantly evolving customer and employee expectations. The physical store will remain the heart of retail and as we start to plan for the post-pandemic world, it’s about time we truly reimagine how.
Volansys selects Quectel LTE modules to enable gateway connectivity for remote attendance system

Travel SIM for things
The number of international travelers is set to reach 1.8 billion by 2025,1 and as travel statistics continue to rise, so do roaming expectations. Day to day, consumers are reliant on an increasing number of connected devices, which are equally – if not more – important when traveling abroad. Travelers expect their devices to remain operational wherever in the world they are, with reliable, high quality, cost effective connectivity. For providers, the Travel SIM market is highly competitive – as customer demand increases, operators must deliver the best customer experience at the right price, to remain viable.
iBASIS eSIM technology enables network performance for the most advanced and precise sports tracking technology systems on the market
McLloyd, a key player in high performance sport technology, sought iBASIS eSIM technology to achieve unparalleled real-time monitoring in their HPv2 trackers, which are designed for real-time global broadcasting of horse races.

Pervasive Vehicle-2-Anything Connectivity Enables Safe, Engaging Rally Racing Experience
Over the past decade, a surge in rally sport competition has resulted in greater incidences of injury, fatalities, and property damage. In an attempt to mitigate these risks, regulators and rally industry representatives are taking steps to rewrite many of the procedures, requirements, and rules currently on the books. This includes firming up team and vehicle licensing requirements, mandating the use of specialised safety equipment, and requiring the latest integrated in-vehicle GPS and communication technologies.
Golf course intelligence software
Traditionally, teams of marshals on a golf course would manage the flow of play and ensure that golfers weren’t holding up players behind them. They would need to manually identify and locate slow groups of players, requiring time and many resources. With Tagmarshal’s system, all the information about where players are on the course and how long they are taking to complete the hole is now sent back to marshals via GPS devices.
Protecting Hotel Staff with Panic buttons
In this use case we show how monitoring the hotel employee’s location is simplified thanks to the use of WiFi and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) as well as AVSystem’s products—Linkyfi Location Engine (advanced system for indoor positioning) and the Coiote IoT Data Orchestration platform (IoT platform for integrating, visualizing and processing data).
