How can I track smart devices indoors?
Navizon I.T.S. works in the background, quietly and unobtrusively locating Wi-Fi enabled devices. These devices (stations) are tracked within the coverage area (site) which is determined by a network of nodes.
No application is needed on the devices to be tracked!
The only requirement is that their Wi-Fi radios be turned on, which is the default in most smart phones, tablets and laptops.
Navizon I.T.S. nodes are small and inconspicuous, and placed approximately within 100 feet of each other to cover a three-dimensional space, the site, which may span a multi-story building or multiple buildings in a campus. Nodes are simply plugged into standard electrical outlets for power. No wiring is necessary, as the nodes automatically configure themselves into a wireless mesh network.
All nodes in an I.T.S. site periodically report the list of Wi-Fi enabled devices they detect and the strength of their radio signals. The aggregate information from multiple nodes provides accurate positioning of each Wi-Fi device using Navizon's proprietary algorithms. These algorithms answer questions like: «Which floor is it on?» and «What is the precise location on that floor?»
Device location information is computed by the cloud-based Navizon I.T.S. service and is accessible via a web interface. In addition, a REST API is available to access Navizon I.T.S. data and integrate with solutions such as security and marketing.
