UWB RTLS for triggering multimedia content

Locatify created Android and iOS multimedia guides for the museum. The apps use GPS outdoors, and Sewio’s UWB RTLS indoors for triggering multimedia content relative to a guests location. Guests are provided a UWB tracking tag and their position is communicated to the app via the RTLS Studio and the Locatify Creator CMS. As guests approach specific exhibits or locations, audio and additional information such as videos and images are delivered via the app.
